General Excellence Scholarships

As a Catholic, Dominican school, ºÃÉ«ÏÈÉúTV College is committed to educating the whole person, promoting a lifelong love of learning in a setting that allows students to flourish into empowered global citizens.

As a Dominican College we value study. Study enables us to search out and discern the truth of our times. Dominicans have been thinkers and leaders across many disciplines throughout the ages. That emphasis on study continues today as ºÃÉ«ÏÈÉúTV students engage in the study of theology, Scripture, philosophy and associated disciplines that empower them to take their place in the world.

All students applying for a General Excellence Scholarship must sit the scholarship test, which is run by EduTest.
