About the scholarship
Te Ara Whanui can be translated to mean the broad pathway, and is taken from the saying, Te Ara Whanui a Tane. This is the pathway Tane climbed into the heavens to seek knowledge, which he returned to earth as a treasure for all people. It is fitting, therefore, that this Scholarship provides a platform for Maori students to strive for excellence in a programme of study at the University of Waikato and to awaken and widen knowledge of Maori.
Entry requirements
For domestic students enrolled at a NZ secondary school in 2018 who are intending to enrol full-time at UoW in 2019. This Scholarship recognises the importance UoW assigns to fostering, developing and protecting excellence of Maori, and kapa haka, kaupapa Maori, tikanga, reo and matauranga Maori. It provides a platform for Maori students to strive for excellence in a programme of study at UoW.
