Year 7
To be eligible for enrolment in our school, students must also be enrolled in a NSW Government school which is classified as a rural or remote school. To view the list of authorised Aurora College host schools, click here.
Students seeking enrolment in Year 7 are considered for entry on the basis of academic merit, which is determined by the students’ performance on the school curriculum and in the Selective High Schools Placement Test.
Where students qualify to attend a fulltime local selective school and our school, the offer made to successful students will be determined by the order in which parents list their choices.
Applications for entry into Year 7 in 2026 are now closed.
