All scholarships have been made possible by the generous gifts of Old Boys and other College supporters. Christ’s College’s most prestigious academic scholarships – the Somes Exhibition Scholarships – are named after the inspirational early benefactor, Maria Somes.

The value of scholarships has increased from $1.723m in the 2024 academic year to $1.883m in the 2025 academic year. Donations for scholarships have increased from $95k in the 2024 academic year to $274k in the 2025 academic year. These donations were largely received as part of the 2025 Annual Appeal campaign, which focused on scholarships for students who would otherwise not have been able to attend Christ’s College. The support from third-party donations to continue to offer these scholarships is appreciated.
