In making the recommendations, the selection committee gives equal consideration to: a. an essay on aspects of Greek and/or Roman history and literature, taken from the applicant's coursework in the year of application and submitted by the applicant for consideration by the selection committee and b. performance in a Greek or Latin translation examination, which applicants will be required to sit. This examination can be an end-of-year examination, or a separate, unseen examination as determined by the Tumuaki Tari Head of the Department of Classics.
If, in any year, there are fewer candidates of sufficient merit than there are scholarships available, fewer scholarships are awarded.
These scholarships are offered to students enrolled in undergraduate Greek and Latin courses at the University of Canterbury.
Tenure: One year
Applicable Enrolment During Tenure: An undergraduate or postgraduate programme in classical
literature.
