Year 7 Entrance Exams Application Form - Duchy College, Harrogate
Our Entrance Exam day for entry in Year 7 (U3) in September 2026, will take place on Saturday 17 January 2026.
Our Entrance Exams include Maths, Verbal and Non Verbal Reasoning sections, as well as an interview with either the Principal or one of our senior members of staff – we know that might all sound a bit daunting, but the pupils always leave with smiles on their faces and have typically made some new friends along the way.
Scholarship Assessments will take place on Thursday 15 and Friday 16 January 2026.
We are very excited to welcome current Year 6 boys and girls to our 2026 Entrance Exam and Scholarship Assessment Day, following the announcement of our gradual transition to a fully co-ed school from 2-18 years from September 2026. Alongside the move to a co-ed senior school, our family of schools will be known as Duchy College from September 2026.

Our move to a fully co-ed school will be a gradual process over a number of years to both minimise changes for current pupils and to ensure our co-ed provision is of the very highest quality.
Application Deadline
The application deadline for both entrance exams and scholarships is 5th December 2025. If your child is unable to attend either the scholarship assessment days or the Entrance Examination Day, please contact the Admissions Team via admissions@hlc.org.uk or telephone 01423 537045 and we will be happy to arrange an alternative day.
