Award values for this short course:

The award is primarily intended for domestic Bachelor of Commerce students, although a small number of awards will be reserved for eligible international students.

Māori and Pacific students may also be able to receive an additional Global Experience Award - Māori and Pacific students.

If there are more applications than places available in any category, the basis of selection will be demonstrated academic achievement in the form of an applicant’s GPA and the quality of the personal statement. Equal consideration will be given to both criteria. Students must also be accepted by the partner institution.

Students who have previously received a Global Experience Award are not eligible.

120 points completed towards the BCom at UC (with a GPA of at least 4.0/B- average).

Your application may be approved if you will meet the points requirement at the end of 2025 S1 assuming you pass all of your 2025 S1 courses, and you currently meet the GPA requirement (this will be looked at, and decided, on a case-by-case basis).

In addition to meeting the eligibility criteria above, students must provide a personal statement when applying for the programme, which will be taken into account in determining who is selected to participate in it. There may also be a limit placed on the number of students who can participate.
