What is the Prince Albert Foundation Scholarship Programme?

The PAF Scholarship programme is part of the Excellent and Access Campaign and was established with a clear objective of widening access by offering fully funded (110%) places to young people with talent and ambition whose families otherwise would be unable to afford the fees.

Inclusivity and diversity are central themes of our educational philosophy, forming the bedrock of everything we do. Over the years, Wellington has not only inspired the young people who have come here on fully funded places, but it has also been profoundly inspired by them.
