About the scholarship
The University of Waikato Taught Postgraduate Scholarship is designed to support part- and full-time students studying at postgraduate level1 at the University of Waikato. Applicants will primarily be enrolling in coursework, rather than research papers. Preference will be given to students on a pathway to research qualifications at the University of Waikato. Awards will be determined on academic merit.
Entry requirements
- To be eligible applicants must be: a) enrolling in 500-level taught papers; OR b) enrolling in 400-level taught papers that are categorised as Level 8 under the New Zealand Qualifications Framework (see Appendix A).
- Scholarships are awarded on academic merit, with a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) of A– expected. Normally, GPA calculations will be based on the equivalent of the applicant’s last two years of full-time study.
- Past recipients may apply for subsequent Taught Postgraduate Scholarships if they continue to meet the eligibility criteria.
- The Scholarship is open to New Zealand citizens, permanent residents, and international students. 4.1. International students must have completed at least 120 points at any New Zealand University.
