The concept of awarding scholarships will have differing criteria at various schools, but at Downlands we seek to offer the gift of a Downlands education to those students who aspire to be part of our community and who are keen to give something significant back to the College through demonstrated excellence, thereby enhancing established programs and events at the College.

Scholarships are an excellent opportunity for students to pursue their academic, performing arts, and all-rounder talents. These scholarships are available for both current and new students who are entering Year 7 or Year 10. It's a chance for students to showcase their academic excellence, performing arts skills, and all-rounder abilities. The 2026 scholarships are now open for applications, providing students with the chance to apply and showcase their talents.
