2024伊顿Orwell奖学金正式开启！

日前，伊顿公学已经官宣正式开启2024伊顿Orwell Award奖学金计划！

什么是Orwell Award奖学金计划呢？

Orwell Award以乔治·奥威尔的名字命名，乔治·奥威尔曾就读于伊顿公学，并作为伊顿公学学生获得过经济援助。奥威尔奖的获得者在伊顿公学的整个教育过程中无需支付任何费用，并获得津贴，使其能够在学校生活中发挥充分和有益的作用。

Orwell Award还有另外两个部分，即6th Form音乐奖和MCM戏剧奖。每年有12 名才华横溢的男孩获得Orwell Award。

Orwell Award与许多其他奖学金不同，除了评估申请人的学术潜力外，获得奖学金的标准还包括申请人的个人情况。因此，伊顿会根据特定标准对申请人进行评估。

2024年9月入围的Orwell Award申请现已开放。申请截止日期为2023年9月22日。

值得注意的是，除Orwell Award之外，伊顿还设有多项学术奖学金，优中选优，颁发给学术和综合素质都顶级优秀的学生。

优中选优，奖励优秀

伊顿公学不同升学阶段的奖学金设置有很大不同。

King’s Scholarships；

New Foundation Scholarship；

Music Awards；

● 6th Form阶段的奖学金考试包括：

伊顿公学奖学金考试的难度较大，拿到入学offer或者奖学金offer可不是那么容易的……

英国私校奖学金，竞争激烈难度大！

英国顶级私校奖学金要求都比较高。

尤其是如伊顿、哈罗这类声名卓著的英国顶尖私校。

比如伊顿公学13+入学申请中的国王奖学金（King’s Scholarships）。伊顿根据13岁入学男孩的学术能力评估奖学金获得者。每年大约有14名学生获得伊顿国王奖学金。

伊顿国王奖学金考试旨在寻找最有能力的候选人，因此其要求非常高。大多数考试试卷都有广泛的出题范围，具有出色学术能力的男孩需抓住机会证明自己；考官热衷于奖励表现出个人能力的男孩，即使只是有限领域。每位奖学金申请者必须完成几篇必修Paper（目前为英语、创意写作、数学 A、科学和综合 I）以及至少3篇选修Paper（法语、拉丁语、希腊语、数学 B、综合 II 和历史地理神学）等科目的考试。

伊顿公学对于国王奖学金申请人的英语、科学等学科能力都有明确且细化的要求：
