School Leaver Scholarships
If you plan to enrol in your first year of an undergraduate degree at UC next year, we recommend you apply for one or more of our School-Leaver Scholarships.
Each scholarship has different eligibility criteria like subject area, level, and qualification. Find out more and apply.
School-Leaver Scholarships are available for application annually. If you are planning to enrol in your first year of an undergraduate degree at UC next year, it's worth applying for a scholarship (or two!) to fund your studies.
School-leavers scholarships are available specifically for:
- M?ori and Pasifika students
- Students who can demonstrate leadership potential
- Students with financial hardship or other personal circumstances
- Students moving away from home to study at UC (with accommodation costs)
We recommend you apply for all the scholarships you are eligible for, as it is possible to be awarded more than one scholarship at a time.
Undergraduate scholarships
UC offers a diverse range of scholarships to support students studying an undergraduate degree. Take a look at all the undergraduate scholarships UC administers and search UC's scholarships database to see which scholarships are currently available. You can also visit Universities NZ to learn about national scholarships you might be eligible for.
The University of Canterbury realises that funding your studies is no easy feat. To address this, we have several scholarships on offer for current undergraduate students to assist their financial needs and provide a helping hand to make university life a little easier.
Postgraduate scholarships
UC offers a number of scholarships to support students studying at a postgraduate level at Te Whare W?nanga o Waitaha | University of Canterbury.
Are you thinking of Postgraduate* study in 2025? We have a number of Postgraduate Scholarships closing mainly between 15 October and 2 December for study in 2025.
Begin your search using our Scholarships Database, using the filters such as 'Level of Study' and 'Faculty/School' depending on what you are planning on studying. Click through to the scholarship's Regulations to check that you meet the eligibliity criteria and you can also take note of the selection criteria for the scholarship.
All scholarships need to go through a review process each year, so although they are listed, they may not show application dates until they are confirmed. Once a scholarship is confirmed as being offered, the scholarship will open for applications approximately eight weeks prior to their closing dates.
Equity scholarships
UC is committed to developing a diverse, culture-rich, cooperative environment for everyone studying at Te W?nanga o Waitaha | University of Canterbury.
To support this, UC offers a number of equity scholarships to encourage the greatest possible participation and maximise the educational potential of all students, with particular emphasis on those groups in those communities that are under-represented among the students of the institution.
