BEFORE YOU SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION

Think about your cultural, sporting and leadership achievements – we want to hear about your interests in the arts, your sporting abilities (and the levels you play at) and any leadership positions you hold.

Prepare a recent passport-size photo of yourself (head and shoulders only)

You are required to nominate a Referee and you will need to have their name and email address ready before you start your application.

It is our preference that your referee be someone who knows you well including a schoolteacher, House Master/Supervisor, or employee.

We will not accept a referee from a friend or family member.

If you are considering applications to both our Residential or Associate positions, please select one only and you can discuss your considerations at the time of interview. There is no need to submit two applications.
