2027 Scholarships

2027 High School Leaver Scholarships

At Crown Institute, we believe in backing ambition and investing in the future. Our scholarships are designed to empower high school leavers who are ready to take the next step towards meaningful study and a rewarding career.

For the 2027 academic year, Crown Institute will award scholarships of up to NZ$3,000 to eligible students enrolling in programmes commencing in February 2027. These scholarships recognise motivation, commitment, and potential, and are intended to help students focus on what matters most — learning, growing, and building their future.

Scholarship awards are applied directly towards tuition fees and are valid for the 2027 academic year. By easing the financial barrier to study, Crown Institute scholarships provide students with the confidence and support to begin their tertiary journey with momentum.

If you’re a school leaver with big goals and the drive to succeed, we encourage you to explore the opportunities available and take the first step towards your future at Crown Institute.
