About the scholarship

Over 10 months, a group of AUT students and staff, inspired by a common desire to improve former refugees’ access to tertiary education, came together to voluntarily co-create a cookbook featuring recipes and stories of AUT students and alumni from refugee backgrounds.

All proceeds from the sale of the Tastes of Home book go towards creating a scholarship fund for people from refugee backgrounds, to support successful completion of a degree at AUT.

Applicants must be:

  1. NZ citizens or permanent residents from a refugee background.

  2. Currently enrolled or intending to enroll in the semester following application in a programme of study of no less than 30 points per semester and up to a maximum of 120 points per academic year.
