Tongarewa Scholarship for International Students is now open for applications from suitably qualified students. It is a fully funded scholarship for all students sponsored by the Victoria University of Wellington.
About the Scholarship
The Tongarewa Scholarships honor the University’s dedication to the community of international students. Each year, we give these scholarships to international students in a variety of fields.
This partial fee-based grant will help cover one year’s worth of tuition. Applicants may begin their first year of an undergraduate degree at Victoria University of Wellington or beginning a postgraduate degree program.
Academic excellence is a criterion for scholarship selection. They seek to enroll in classes the following year and their tuition payments will be credited.
Candidates that make the short list might be asked for more data to back up their applications. As long as a housing application is submitted before the deadline to University Accommodation Wellington, scholarship recipients are assured an offer of a spot in one of our Halls of Residence.
