Careers & Higher Education - Queenwood

Our Careers Program guides students through the first steps of their journey beyond Queenwood, providing insight, practical experiences, and personalised guidance to help them make informed, purposeful choices.

From early exploration to preparing for post-school pathways, we inspire students to think ambitiously, act with confidence, and approach challenges with resilience. Structured interactions with employers, alumni, and community partners, along with work-integrated learning experiences, allow students to connect theory to practice, gain insight into real-world contexts, and develop the practical skills, professional confidence, and ethical discernment needed to thrive.

Careers Advisors

Queenwood girls are assisted by our Careers Advisor in identifying courses, seeking admission and applying for scholarships at universities across Australia and the world.

A significant majority gain entrance each year to their first choice of university course. They regularly go on to study at top universities in Australia and overseas (eg Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, St Andrew’s, Cambridge and top US colleges). In recent years our girls have also enjoyed remarkable success in winning prestigious scholarships in Australia and overseas (including full scholarships to universities such as Harvard, Yale and Duke).

We are proud of the contribution that our graduates go on to make in a wide range of fields and regularly invite them back as inspiring mentors and advisors for our students.
