What is the Ōtātara Trust?
The Ōtātara Trust is a charitable trust established in 1977 to encourage continuing education and assist EIT to achieve its role as the premier tertiary provider in Hawke’s Bay.
Initially the trust had a broader role in management of separate businesses within EIT such as the Children’s Centre and the Bookshop.
In 2008, five new scholarships were introduced to mark 30 years of support for EIT and the Trust’s more focussed role on scholarship support.
Who may apply?
Any returning EIT Hawkes Bay student undertaking full time Level 6 and/or Level 7 study.
Applications open 1st of February 2025 and close 15th March 2025. Applicants will be notified on the outcome of their application at the end of March.
