This collection of centrally funded 'ҕl Doctoral Scholarships', are grouped into three categories. These, and their co-tenability conditions, are:
- Core– Not co-tenable with any other Core scholarships.
- Prestige– Co-tenable with Core scholarships.
- Recognition– Co-tenable with Core scholarships and do not include additional monetary value.
These scholarships are a mix of awards, which recognise success within certain categories (academic, women, Māori, Pacific students, etc.).
The Prestige and Recognition scholarships are selected from all the applicants who were assessed for a Core scholarship in any given year. Because of this, Prestige and Recognition scholarships are awarded at the end of each academic year (no separate application is required). If an applicant is awarded a Prestige scholarship, its value is added to the value of the Core Scholarship, so for example, a stipend of $32,000 p.a. is increased to $37,000 p.a.
Applications for those with a 2025 start (between 1 February and 1 July 2025) closed on 25 October 2024. Details of any subsequent rounds will be announced early 2025.
Please note:These scholarships are subject to funding availability and are reviewed each year. Theҕl Scholarships Office administers most of these scholarships. Please search ourfor all scholarships currently available.
