Do you have scholarships for boys to attend the School?
No. We are not able to offer scholarship places at Wellington College.
I have purchased a property and settlement takes place in 6 weeks. Can I apply to enrol now?
We cannot process an application in advance on the basis of a signed tenancy or settlement. You must be resident at the enrolment address before making an application.
My husband and I are separated and only one of us lives within the school zone. Is my son entitled to enrol?
This depends on where he spends the majority of his time while the school is open for instruction. In order to satisfy the school of this you need to supply a copy of the custody agreement or legal documentation.
Can my son live with his aunt/a friend/a home stay family in zone, while we live out of the zone?
No. Students can only live with their parent or legal guardian.
Are there plans to change the School Zone?
Neither the Ministry of Education nor the Board of Trustees has signalled any intention to change the School zone.
How long do we have to remain living in zone?
Students should remain living within the zone for at least 24 months from the date they start at the College.
My son is a very strong academic student and/or sportsman and/or musician. Will this give him preference over other boys for an Out of Zone place?
No. The Ballot is carried out under a Justice of the Peace and is akin to a lottery or lucky dip.
When will I find out about my son’s place on the ballot?
The School will notify you in writing of your ranking on the ballot within a week of the ballot taking place.
