Assisted Entry Years 10 and 11 2009
The opening of our new Middle School this month means that we have more space on our Senior Campus and our capacity for students in Years 9 to 12 has increased. This provides the opportunity for Collegiate to offer Assisted Entry into Years 10 and 11 next year for students who may otherwise be unable to attend.
The application process involves the completion of an application form outlining interests, talents and achievements, provision of the last two school reports and an interview with the Principal. If you are interested in applying for Assisted Entry for Years 10 or 11 in 2009 then please contact our Registrar, Katherine Hutton, on 03 6211 4969 or email registrar@collegiate.tas.edu.au
