REACH (Realising Educational Aspirations for Careers in Health)
The REACH Otago Scholarship (Realising Educational Aspirations for Careers in Health) provides the opportunity for twenty Year 13 Māori students to spend three nights and days on the University of Otago's Dunedin campus. Students from across New Zealand experience University life first-hand:
- Living in, and visiting, residential colleges
- Attending lectures
- Meeting current Otago students
- Learning about the various degree and study options Otago offers, particularly in health
Applications for the REACH Otago Scholarship open on 1 May and close on 10 June each year. The programme is delivered annually between late July and early August.
