It’s that time of year when NEGS provides the opportunity for students and families to apply for 2025 scholarships.

NEGS believes in developing empathetic, fulfilled young people with drive and purpose who know themselves, take ownership, and embrace possibilities to contribute and thrive in a complex and changing world.

Academic scholarships are offered to students entering Years 7 to 11 who demonstrate outstanding academic achievement. The scholarship is aligned to NEGS’ approach to instilling a lifelong love of learning and delivering an educational experience that guides students toward progress and diverse pathways for personal growth.

Since NEGS opened its doors over 128 years ago boarding has continued to deliver a regional immersive experience, welcoming students from towns and properties right across Australia.

Within the sprawling 50 hectare grounds students enjoy a wide range of co-curricular activities in world-class facilities for equestrian and hockey. Through our Agriculture Program,
we develop skills in animal husbandry, crop production, and land management, while emphasising sustainability and responsible practices.

Sport is an integral part of being a healthy NEGS student which is why the school offers Sporting Excellence Scholarships. It provides part remission of fees to students excelling in their chosen sport, acknowledging the significant cost to families associated with travel and supplies for students competing at representative levels.

All-Rounder Scholarships are also offered to students who demonstrate high levels of academic achievement, evidence of leadership or community service, significant co-curricular participation and will contribute to the life of the School.

Performing Arts, Music, Visual Arts and Design have scholarships available for students showing talent and achievement in the creative arts. Some scholarships are for students from Year 7 and others in later years. They are designed to support the growth and development of their talent either as a future career pathway or as an enriching part of their lives.

One thing is for certain, there are many ways NEGS provides financial assistance for students and families who desire an independent school education and the benefit of forming lifelong friendships through their connected community.
