First Nations Scholarships

The Wulili Indigenous Student Scholarship is offered to an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander student who is entering the School in Years 7 to Year 11 in 2027 and who may not otherwise be able to come to the School.  

The Wulili Scholarship is funded by the Perth College Foundation and the amount provided will depend on the individual family’s capacity to contribute and the extent of other funding they are receiving. It is expected that the family will make some monetary contribution towards the child’s ongoing education.

Students are selected based on achievements across a breadth of activities including academic, co-curricular, leadership, service and innovation/entrepreneurship strengths. 

Application Criteria 

To be considered for the Wulili Scholarship, students apply direct to the School in the year prior to entry. Students are required to submit a cover letter, addressed to the Principal, responding to the following questions:  

• Tell us about yourself and your family/traditional background 
• Why you would like to come to Perth College 
• What you feel you can bring to our School Community 

In addition, to the cover letter the following documents will also need to be provided:  

• Two most recent school reports 
• Most recent NAPLAN results (if available) 
• Written essay: 350-500 word response to the following question: 

“Leadership is about making a positive impact so that others can benefit more than you. Write about how you hope to show this in your own community, once you have finished school.” 

Please email all the above responses and supporting documents to enrolments@pc.wa.edu.au. Students are to apply for the Wulili Scholarship by 1 August of the year prior to entry.
