Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in New Zealand

The International Doctoral Scholarship is awarded to all international PhD candidates who do not receive the Differential Tuition Fee Waiver or the Tuition Fee Exemption Scholarship, for a maximum of five (5) years.

The International Doctoral Scholarship is awarded to reduce the tuition fees to the equivalent of the PhD Canadian tuition fees. International tuition fees will be reflected on the student account.  However, with the application of the Scholarship, international PhD candidates will pay the equivalent of Canadian tuition fees for a maximum duration of five (5) years. 

The amount of the Scholarship will fluctuate over the years dependent on the current Canadian tuition fees. The net effect of the Scholarship will be to reduce the amount of the tuition fees to a level equivalent to those paid by Canadian students. Please note that the scholarship will be awarded only if tuition fees are charged to your student account.  

We invite you to consult the tuition fee calculation table for Canadian PhD tuition fees.

*Please note that this scholarship cannot be combined with the Full International Scholarship.
