These Scholarships are named after Rawdon Dalrymple AO, one of Australia’s leading post war diplomats. In addition to your completed application form, applicants must write a 1000 word essay. If you’re in year 9 or 10, the essay is to take the form of a letter starting with “Dear Prime Minister…” and must address a matter of international importance such as the environment or human rights, for example.

If you’re in year 11 or 12 the essay is to address a topic of international importance such as global warming or Australia’s trading relationships, for example.
