Year 12 students awarded prestigious UOW Ramsay Scholarships for 2023

Illawarra Christian School is delighted to congratulate two students from our 2022 Year 12 cohort who have been recently announced as recipients of the prestigious Ramsay Scholarship at the University of Wollongong!

Year 12 students Callia Spreitzer and Molly Story will both receive the scholarship, valued at $30K per year for up to five years of study, after an extensive application and on-campus interview process earlier this year.

There are only 30 Ramsay Scholarships available each year at UOW. The scholarships are made available through the Ramsay Centre for Western Civilisation, to high-achieving students who are applying to study a Bachelor of Arts in Western Civilisation. 

According to the Ramsay Centre, Ramsay Scholars must possess the following attributes:

"Passionate, engaged, entrepreneurial, and responsible, UOW Ramsay Scholars are tolerant and collaborative contributors to their communities and workplaces. They are creative and critical thinkers who challenge and cross boundaries. They contribute effectively and independently to discussion and debate, while demonstrating self­-awareness, a desire to empower others, and qualities such as empathy, humility and diplomacy. UOW Ramsay Scholars are the exemplar of UOW graduates: intellectually fearless and socially connected leaders."

Congratulations Molly and Callia!
