Sport Scholarships Awards

Sport Scholarships

We offer Sports scholarships for new students at our S1 (12+), S2 (13+), and S5 (16+) entry points and for existing students from S1 for the academic year 2025 - 2026.

See our Sports scholarship videos and leaflet below for full details on the application criteria, process and student case studies.

Being named a scholar at St George's carries significant prestige, and scholarships offer a discount on school fees or a financial award towards further education expenses.

For scholarships recipients in S1 - S4 a fee discount of up to 5% will be levied.

For Sixth Form scholars a financial award is given towards further education expenses - no other monetary discount against fees will be levied.

Entrance assessment dates vary depending on the year group of entry. Our admissions team will contact you with an assessment date on receipt of an application.
