Before you apply

Many of the Trust's other educational grants are managed through the Ngātimanawa Incorporation rather than Māori Education Trust — worth asking about both if your whānau hold interests here. Applied for through the Māori Education Trust's application portal, not directly through the trust — select this partner when you register so the form is made visible. You may apply for every MET scholarship you qualify for in the same application, but only one is awarded, so tick everything. One of nine iwi and land-trust scholarships found on the Māori Education Trust's 2026 application forms that are not reachable by searching an iwi name alone — see the Māori Education Trust — Secondary Scholarships and Undergraduate and Postgraduate Scholarships listings for the other eight and the general scheme.
