Successful candidates are awarded a discount on fees, usually 10%. However, the main purpose of a Strathallan Scholarship is to nurture talent and promote achievement.
Scholars have access to a range of opportunities, like extra support to develop skills in their area of focus. In return, they are expected to contribute to and enhance our academic, musical, sporting and arts programmes, supporting and encouraging their peers to do the same.
Scholarships are awarded in open competition to individuals who demonstrate a very high level of achievement and potential in the following categories:
