Current EIT students are able to apply for this financial assistance.

To see whether you are eligible for this funding you will find the criteria here [http://myeit.eit.ac.nz/COVID-19_financial_support.html].

Successful applicants will receive funds credited directly to their bank accounts. There is no requirement for any part of these funds to be repaid.

Students are able to loan a laptop from EIT if they need to study from home. The form for this is here [http://myeit.eit.ac.nz/Student_laptop_borrowing.html]. Students will go on to a waiting list and will be contacted when a laptop is available.

Laptops are to be returned in good condition at the end of the academic year or at the end of their course, whichever date is earliest.
