13+ entry
We spend time getting to know each prospective family during the admissions process. It is a unique system, focused on potential, not merely prior attainment. It is based substantially on interview and ensures that by the time a boy starts, he will often have had a number of years to get to know us.
16+ Entry
Each year we welcome a limited number of boys in to the Sixth Form, a choice which is becoming increasingly popular. Boys join to study our Pre-U curriculum and quickly take advantage of extra-curricular activities.
Bursaries
Is ability more important than background? Our founder believed so, and we follow his example. The attitude of every boy matters most at Winchester, not his means.
Election
Especially bright boys may be invited to take part in Election, the academic scholarship exam. This may reward them with a Scholarship in College or an Exhibition place in another boarding house.
Music & Sports Scholarships
These are awards for particularly talented musicians or sportsmen.
International applications
Each one of our boys is carefully selected, but what is most important is a desire to be here, however far from home.
