Scholarships
Please note that ALL prospective Grade 8 students are required to write the Placement Test. We do require ALL prospective students to be on our waiting list in order to write these assessments. Application to the school must be made to the Admissions Department in the year proceeding admission. Based on the Placement Test results and information received in the application form, the top candidates will be invited to write the Scholarship Exams.
The Scholarship Exam for entry into Grade 8 are by invitation only and will be written at the College. Two papers will be written; Mathematics and English. Scholarship offers will be made based on the results of these two papers. For more information, please contact Mrs Patricia McNaught Davis at admissions@somcol.co.za
Please understand that no correspondence will be entered into at any stage of the process. All applications will be treated equally. The discretion of the school in this regard is non-negotiable.
Students requiring bursaries will be identified via the application and assessment process.
