Scholarships

Maritzburg College awards a limited number of Scholarships for excellence in Academics, Culture, and Sport. In all cases, the potential candidates are selected, solely at the discretion of the school, according to a range of carefully defined criteria.

Recognising Excellence

Academic Scholarships

Academic scholarships are awarded to a select few of the top achievers in Mathematics and English.

These awards are based on (1) the Grade 6 December report and (2) the results of the Maritzburg College scholarship exam (written by invitation only).

Cultural Scholarships

Cultural scholarships are usually awarded retrospectively at the discretion of the school and based on a learner’s cultural talent.

Sporting Scholarships

Sporting scholarships are awarded to a select few of the learners who perform at a provincial (or higher) level.

We take into account the information parents provide on the application forms and the constant monitoring of the learner’s performance by our Recruitment Department.

Please note: The school does not offer bursaries for financial relief.

How To Be Considered

Every application is assessed according to the above criteria. Therefore, parents should not apply for scholarships at Maritzburg College. Our admissions team roots out talent in each of these key areas, working within a successful scholarship selection model. We will contact parents whose sons are awarded these scholarships to notify them.
