About the scholarship

At OneChoice our goal has been to protect the quality of people's lives. We do this by providing insurance products that meet the needs of everyday Kiwis and offer peace of mind at an affordable price.

We know that health for you and your family is only ever as good as the people who are providing it. And we know that finances are a key factor for families as well as insurance products and services. So with that in mind, we are helping to encourage the best people into healthcare, business and finance industries by providing the OneChoice futures grant.

How To Apply

To apply for the OneChoice Futures Grant, you will need to write an essay (maximum 700 words) on why you want to work in your selected industry and the difference you hope to make in your particular field of study.

We are looking for submissions that reflect a OneChoice desire to improve the quality of people's lives. It doesn't have to be great prose, just honest and from the heart, so start thinking about the OneChoice reasons you have chosen the career path you have and then put them into words.

All applicants must email the following documentation to [email protected];

  • Proof of identification;
  • Proof of enrolment, including course name, tertiary institution name and enrolment status;
  • Your response (max word count 700 words); and
  • Contact details (including residential address).
