flag New Zealand launches a $12,000 final-year study grant for eligible students starting Jan. 15, 2026.

flag Starting January 15, 2026, New Zealand learners can apply for the Final-year Fees Free initiative, which offers up to $12,000 for the final year of study or final two years of work-based learning at level 3 or higher. flag Applicants must pay fees upfront and apply within one year of completing their first eligible qualification, with 2025 applications due by December 31, 2026. flag Payments go directly to learners or reduce student loan balances and are not taxable. flag The program replaces the first-year Fees Free policy and uses data sharing between Inland Revenue and the Tertiary Education Commission to verify eligibility.
