Reports

Scholarships and Fellowships are administered on the Trust’s behalf by the University of Auckland and the University of Otago. For each award the host institution and the Trust have jointly approved regulations which include reporting requirements. These requirements vary between awards but, as a general rule, periodic progress reports and final reports must be submitted to the Dean of the relevant faculty.
