School Leaver Scholarships

Scholarships to set you up for life...

"My passion and drive to pursue a career in hospitality developed in my senior year of high school. My careers advisor encouraged me to apply for a scholarship. I attended the scholarship workshop day and left feeling so excited about my future in hospitality. I couldn't believe it when I won a full scholarship! The scholarship has opened up so many opportunities for me, professionally and financially, and I can't wait to start my career."
