Updated 23 Jul 2026
Overview
The Flacks & Wong Prize in Commercial Law is an annual award at the University of Auckland Law School, established in 2020 and funded by Flacks & Wong, a specialist corporate law firm. It goes to the full-time law student who earns the highest grade point average across all Part IV Commercial Law courses in a given year, provided that student clears a minimum GPA of 7.00. As with most of Auckland's faculty prizes, there's no application form: the Dean of the Faculty of Law nominates the top performer directly to the Scholarships Office, and the University Council confirms the award.
For Indian students weighing an LLB or LLB(Hons) at Auckland, this prize is more of a signal of how the law school recognises strong performance in commercial law than a funding source to plan around. It's limited to domestic students, so it doesn't apply to prospective international applicants, but we've kept it in the listing so the picture of what Auckland's Law Faculty offers stays complete.
