Sir Edmund Hillary Scholarships
Closing : 01 Oct 2012
Level : Entrance, School Leaver
Value : Cost of tuition fees and access to facilities & services appropriate to sporting code or arts
These scholarships are offered by The University of Waikato to recognise excellence in sporting and artistic activities of students who are academically qualified to enter the University. The remuneration of the scholarships can be applied towards tuition fees and associated charges. The scholarship also facilitates access to facilities and services within the University and the wider community to foster continued excellence in sporting and artistic activities of the scholars.
The purpose of the Sir Edmund Hillary Scholarship is to provide support for students to achieve a high academic standard in a programme of study at the University of Waikato, excellence in a sporting code or the creative or performing arts, and to develop leadership qualities through a tailored leadership and personal development programme.
The scholarship may be extended for a further year or years up to the minimum time to complete the degree for which the scholar is enrolled. Such extension will be subject to the scholar's satisfactory academic progress (a minimum of a B average in all papers undertaken) and sustained performance in the sporting code or in the creative or performing arts in which the scholar is involved.
