The University of Otago has marked a milestone in its commitment to global education by hosting its first-ever celebration for recipients of the International Academic Excellence Scholarships.
The event recognised outstanding international students who began their studies this year, highlighting the university’s dedication to attracting and supporting high-achieving learners from around the world.
The scholarships, awarded to top-performing applicants across a range of disciplines, provide financial assistance and recognition for academic merit. By honouring these students, Otago reinforces its reputation as a welcoming and inclusive institution that values diversity and global talent. The initiative reflects Otago’s broader strategy to strengthen international engagement, ensuring that students from abroad feel supported as they pursue world-class education in New Zealand.
Students interested in exploring scholarship opportunities or personalised guidance are encouraged to contact our counselling team, who can provide tailored advice on eligibility, application processes, and the full range of support available at the University of Otago. You’re in good hands.
