Can I Apply For a
Winchester Foundation Scholarship?

If you live in a regional area, you know that a good education can open up a multitude of opportunities for your future. These opportunities are often not accessible in regional areas. 

Living away from home to attend school or university and the additional costs associated can be a struggle for many students and their families. A Winchester Foundation Scholarship can help to assist with these additional costs. 

We believe all students should have access to good education pathways.
