Bursaries
Since it was founded, Marlborough has been committed to providing means-tested financial support to families who need it. The College offers bursaries at Year 9 and Year 12 entry and also has a hardship fund available for current parents whose financial circumstances unexpectedly change. Bursaries range from 5 per cent to 100 per cent, with the possibility of support being provided with additional costs such as uniform depending on family circumstances which are independently assessed during the application process. The bursary application deadline is 1st July prior to the October enrolment deadline. There are currently over 100 bursary pupils at the College and there are plans to dramatically increase this number via a major fundraising campaign called the Marlborough Difference Campaign.
