The below academic criteria must also be met to be considered for a sports academy scholarship offer.

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
We invite expressions of interest for entry into Year 8, 10 or VCE.
Please complete this Expression of Interest Form, which will be reviewed by the MSA selection team. If a place becomes available in your child’s year level and they are being considered for a scholarship based on their sporting achievements, we will contact you to submit a formal application. This will include providing your child's academic records (such as school reports and NAPLAN results) and attending a selection trial as part of the selective entry process.
The selection process and offers are likely to occur in Term 4 for entry in 2026.
