Pacific: Application process and timeline

Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu

NZDS-Open applicants from the Pacific countries above apply directly to a New Zealand education institution. All questions about the NZDS-Open application process should be directed to that institution. The institution will:

  1. Distribute NZDS application forms for the applicant to complete and return with all required supporting documentation. Each education institution has their own close-off date to receive completed NZDS applications.
  2. Assess the candidate’s application for admission to the institution.
  3. If the candidate’s application for admission to study at the institution is approved unconditionally, the institution will send complete NZDS-Open applications to NZAID’s Scholarships Unit in Wellington, New Zealand, by 31 August.

    Note: if the candidate does not meet the NZDS eligibility criteria, the education institution may decline the NZDS application on behalf of NZAID.

  4. NZAID will consider all submitted NZDS applications for selection and will advise the institution of the outcome of the NZDS selection round by early November.

  5. Offer successful candidates a NZDS-Open scholarship, and then assist them with their travel arrangements to New Zealand.

    Successful candidates commence their studies around February the following year.
