    EXMSS Scholarships

    In the new environment of voluntary membership, EXMSS has been forced to reduce the number and value of  scholarships available for 2012. For more information contact the EXMSS office at info@exmss.org.nz.

    EXMSS scholarships are open for application in January each year.
