It depends. Some scholarships for postgraduate diplomas in New Zealand can cover tuition fees and may also provide a stipend for living costs, but full coverage for both is rare.

- Some university scholarships offer partial tuition fee waivers (e.g., NZ$10,000).
- A few may include a living cost stipend, but this is typically limited.
- Most scholarships do not fully cover living expenses, so you’ll need to budget for additional costs.

Scholarship terms and amounts are subject to change. For tailored options and the latest details, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
