FAQ about the Scholarship Program

What are the closing dates for TSAC Scholarships in 2024? 

Applications for Academic scholarships close on Friday 1 March, 2024. The closing date for all remaining scholarships in Friday, 31 March 2024.


Are Scholarships available to current TSAC students?

All TSAC scholarships are available to current TSAC students as well as new students to the College.


What happens after my child sits the Edutest Academic test?

The Edutest is a requirement for an Academic scholarship only. Once your child has completed their exam, your work is done. All exam papers are returned to Edutest, the papers are marked, and the results are returned to us with a ranking order for each child. We will notify successful candidates once the results have been returned. You will receive a personal results sheet to the email address with which you registered.


What if my child is unsuccessful in obtaining a Scholarship offer? How do we enrol him/her?

Your child can still be enrolled at The Springfield Anglican College – even if they do not receive a Scholarship. The overwhelming majority of students at TSAC are not Scholarship holders.


How many Scholarships are offered, and for how much?

Our Scholarships are intended to provide financial assistance to talented students whom otherwise could not afford a TSAC education.  There is a limited scholarship fund from which we draw and this determines the number of scholarships available.

The number of Academic Scholarships offered depends upon the test performance of students each year.  For top-ranking academic students, we offer a 25% reduction in fees.

The amount awarded for all other scholarships is at the Principal’s discretion.


Can my child be on multiple scholarships at the same time?

No, students may apply for multiple scholarships but potentially can only be awarded one.


Are Scholarships available to Primary Campus students?

TSAC Scholarships are only available from Year 7.

 


What are the costs associated with enrolment at the College?

Families are required to pay a $100 Application Fee on submission of their child’s enrolment application to the College. If they are offered a place at TSAC, you are required to pay $600 to secure their place. These fees are both non-refundable. These are ‘once-only fees’.


Can I organise a meeting with the College staff, if I prefer a more personalised Q&A session?

A personalised tour and/or interview can be arranged at any time. Please get in touch with our College Enrolment Officer: enrolments@tsac.qld.edu.au


If my child is in Year 6 at the TSAC Primary Campus, do I need to enrol at the TSAC Secondary Campus?

If your child attends The Springfield Anglican College, you do not need to re-enrol them to come to the Secondary Campus. They are automatically enrolled until the end of Year 12 unless otherwise advised.
