    New Zealand Scholarships Information

    Auckland Grammar School students who are considering applying for scholarships to help assist with tertiary study in 2018 have a wide range of options.

    Universities and other tertiary organisations have provided information on their scholarships including their worth, how many are awarded, how they can assist students and the application closing date.

    Mr Simento, Deputy Headmaster of the Senior School, has put together a document of scholarships available for students to apply for in 2018. Please click here to read and download as a PDF document.

    If you are looking to apply for an overseas university, particularly in the United Kingdom or the United States, this document here will give students information and advice on how to proceed.

    If you would like the School's support with scholarship applications, it's essential that you also complete the online Leaver's Record of Achievement Form.

    Applying for study at UK and US-based universities

    Students who wish to study abroad, particularly at a UK or US-based university, have a number of important things you will need to complete before sending through their application:

    • Write a personal statement about who you are as a person, but make sure it is tailored to the institute you are applying for
    • The application timetable is very structured and needs to be started at least six months before you apply
    • Once you have received your acceptance letter, you will need to ensure your travel arrangements are complete and you will also need a student visa so you are able to study abroad, particularly in the United States

    Auckland Grammar Old Boy Lachlan Kermode '08 has written a piece on what it's like to apply for a US-based university - it is worth reading before you apply. Click here to read more.
