Ballinger Rongotai Scholarships

The Ballinger Rongotai Scholarships were established by Mr T J A Ballinger, through the Ballinger Scholarship Trust. The Scholarships are funded through an endowment from the Ballinger Scholarship Trust to the Victoria University of Wellington Foundation. These scholarships are offered to students from Rongotai College to encourage them to study at Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington in the areas of science, mathematics and engineering. The Scholarship will be awarded primarily on the basis of academic merit although factors such as character, leadership, community involvement and financial circumstances may also be taken into account. Each year a first year student will be selected to receive a Scholarship for up to 4 years or longer at the discretion of the selection panel, providing at least an average B+ grade is maintained.
