While you are thinking about your study options, you may want to know about the financial support you can get. Here are some ways that you can fund your study.

Computer Facilities

Students have access to computer facilities at the Whakatāne campus and Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland) site. Students will be assigned a username and password for eWānanga LMS by their prgoramme administrator so they can access online courses, resources and related course material.

The software needed to complete assignments and course-work is found on all workstations. Printers are available (students should supply their own paper).

Students, on degree programmes in particular, find having a laptop to be extremely beneficial to their studies. Refurbished laptops are also available at a discount price.
