Yoobee Māori & Pasifika Tech Scholarships

*All scholarships have been awarded for 2024.*

At Yoobee we want to support Māori & Pasifika to succeed in the field of technology where they are historically underrepresented. So if you are of Māori or Pacific Island descent and have consistently demonstrated exceptional potential and a passion for technology, then you should consider applying for a Yoobee Māori & Pasifika Tech Scholarship. The Scholarships offer students 90% of their fees payment to put towards their fees for each year of the Bachelor of Software Engineering degree.

Selection Criteria

To be eligible to apply you must:

• Be of NZ Maori or Pacific Island descent

• Be a NZ Permanent Resident or NZ Citizen

• Have completed Year 13

• Apply for the first year of the Bachelor of Software Engineering

• Demonstrate the potential for academic excellence in Technology or related subjects by providing your Academic Transcript

How do I apply?

To apply explicitly state that you are applying for this scholarship in your Letter of Intent, which is part of your official Yoobee College of Creative Innovation application.

Additional information

The submissions will be judged by Yoobee College of Creative Innovation's Academic and Admissions Panel, which will consist of representatives from the programme that the student is applying for as well as members from the Admissions department.

The scholarship entitles you to a 90% discount on the tuition fees for all three years of the programme. The remaining amount owing per year in tuition fees is eligible to be paid through studylink or personal payment. Please note course-related costs are not covered by this scholarship. 

Living costs are also eligible to be paid via studylink. Find out more about living costs in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch here.
