Yoobee Women in Tech Scholarships

At Yoobee we want to support women succeeding in a historically male dominated field. If you identify as female and have consistently demonstrated exceptional potential and a passion for technology, then you should consider applying for a Yoobee Women in Tech Scholarship.

The Scholarships offer students 90% of their fees payment to put towards their fees for each year of the Bachelor Software Engineering degree.

To be eligible to apply you must:

• Identify as female
• Be a NZ Permanent Resident or NZ Citizen
• Have completed Year 13
• Apply for the first year of the Bachelor of Software Engineering

How do I apply?

To apply explicitly state that you are applying for this scholarship in your Letter of Intent, which is part of your official Yoobee College of Creative Innovation application.

Additional information

The submissions will be judged by Yoobee College of Creative Innovation Academic and Admissions Panel, which will consist of representatives from the programme that the student is applying for as well as members from the Admissions department.

The scholarship entitles you to a 90% discount on the tuition fees for all three years of the programme starting in February 2022.

This scholarship would offer tuition fees of $27,000 paid over three years i.e. $9,000 in year 1, year 2, and year 3. The remaining $1,000 per year in tuition fees is eligible to be paid through studylink.
