School leaver scholarships

It's an exciting moment since you're getting ready to graduate from school and are considering your options. No matter where in New Zealand you are from or what your background is, if you plan to attend university, you can apply for a number of school-leaver scholarships to help fund your studies at AUT.

Keir Trust Study Award

These awards are intended for candidates who are the first in their family to pursue a degree. First-in-family typically denotes that neither of the applicant's birth parents has earned a degree.

Woolf Fisher First in Family Scholarships

By providing financial aid as well as ongoing non-financial support, these scholarships aim to persuade students from the Auckland region and elsewhere who are struggling financially to pursue postsecondary education at AUT.
