To view the status of your scholarship application(s), log into your MyWaikato portal and select the 'Scholarships' tab at the top of the page. There, you will view a list of all scholarships and their current status:
- Incomplete: this status means you have not yet submitted your application.
- Evidence Required: this status means we do not have evidence of your previous study. This may be completion of your high school study, or your undergraduate degree programme. When you have this evidence, please upload it your MyWaikato portal and email international@waikato.ac.nz; this will allow us to assess your application quicker.
- Application Received: this status means that your application for the scholarship has been received by the scholarship team.
- Pending: this status means that your application is being prepared for consideration by the selection panel. Once the selection panel have made their decisions, you will receive an outcome via your MyWaikato portal.
All Vice-Chancellor’s International Excellence Scholarships applications are processed towards the end of each month (excluding December). It can take up to 8 weeks from the scholarship application closing date to receive the outcome of your application.
Please be patient. You will receive an outcome through your MyWaikato portal in-tray message service. Ensure you check this weekly.
