The Tulī Takes Flight scholarship, valued at over $30,000, is intended to attract and support Pacific students to reach their potential by removing financial barriers. The funding assists them in pursuing qualifications in either vocational training, undergraduate, graduate or post-graduate study.
The Pacific Education Foundation scholarship, valued at up to $10,000, encourages Pacific students into tertiary education in any area of study at undergraduate or graduate level.
The new scholars will be celebrated at an awards ceremony hosted by the Pacific Education Foundation Board, at Fale O Samoa (Samoa House), Auckland on Friday 4 July.
