Central Energy Trust Bursaries for Academic and Vocational Study

The Trust awards approximately 20 bursaries each year. Bursaries are awarded both for academic study and vocational study. Each Bursary will be awarded for up to three years and have a value of up to $4,000, with the period and amount dependent on the type and duration of study. 50% of the bursary is normally paid for the first year of study and the balance in equal instalments over the remaining period of the bursary.

Academic study is defined as an undergraduate degree course at Massey University, UCOL, Te Wanaga O Aotearoa or International Pacific United NZ.

Vocational Study is defined as study towards a degree, diploma or trade qualification at UCOL, Te Pukenga, Massey University, International Pacific United NZ, NZQA accredited Private or Industry Training organisation and which is related to a qualification for a specified vocation.

Bursary candidates will be assessed based on a combination of factors including academic record, participation in cultural, sport or community activities, future leadership potential and financial need. A higher weighting on school academic performance will apply to applications for academic bursaries. Bursary payments are made at the beginning of each academic year in February/March.
