Scholarships and Bursaries

Brisbane Grammar School has a long tradition of offering scholarships and bursaries to students who have demonstrated they have the potential to derive benefit from a BGS education.

Scholarship and Bursary Application

ACER Cooperative Scholarship Testing Program (CSTP) – Academic Scholarship

Online registrations for the 2025 ACER Cooperative Scholarship Testing Program (CSTP) examination (for Year 7 2026 and Year 10 2026 entry) are now open.

What is the difference between a scholarship and a bursary?

The purpose of a scholarship is to attract talented students who will enhance Brisbane Grammar School’s education programs and positively contribute to the School's culture. There are three (3) types of scholarships: Academic Scholarships, Sports Scholarships and Cultural
Scholarships. Scholarships are funded by the School.

The purpose of a bursary is to provide financial support to a student whose family would not otherwise have the financial means to afford a BGS education for their son and who can positively contribute to the School. Only those students who meet the strict needs-based requirements are eligible for a bursary. Bursaries are funded by the BGS Bursary Fund.
