About the scholarship
A Prize to reward and recognise the student who achieved the best academic record in Stage III English courses. The Prize was established in 1967 by a donation of $500 from Miss A.M. Ardern in memory of her brother, the late Philip Sidney Ardern, who was lecturer and Associate-Professor in English at Auckland University College from 1912 to 1947, and was augmented by subscriptions from his friends and former pupils and colleagues. The aim of the Prize is principally to stimulate the study of Old and Middle English, but, in view of Professor Ardern's wide range of literary interests, is not confined to these topics.
Entry requirements
No application required; awarded on the recommendation of the relevant faculty or University of Auckland committee.
