Keystone Trust – School Leavers Scholarships

Scholarships for School Leavers
Helping you make the leap into university or polytechnic study.

Are you currently a year 13 student? Or maybe you’ve left school in the last few years but haven’t started further study yet?

We have a range of study awards and scholarships on offer for young people (particularly those whose paths are being blocked by financial challenges or difficult circumstances), helping you get a degree behind you and carve a successful career in the property or construction industry.

If you’re awarded a scholarship, you’ll receive financial assistance, mentoring and a first-year study buddy, as well as invitations to regular networking events, incredible work experience opportunities and more.

Scholarship criteria

To be eligible for a school leaver scholarship, here’s what you’ll need to demonstrate:

  • New Zealand citizen or permanent resident status

  • Facing financial challenges or difficult circumstances

  • Minimum of university entrance achieved at school

  • Good written and verbal communication skills

  • Intention to enrol at a tertiary institution in New Zealand to study a property- or construction-related degree (like architecture, construction, engineering, planning, property management, real estate, quantity surveying or valuation)

  • A passion for your chosen course and future career
