Please contact the University on 0800 WAIKATO (0800 924 528) for further advice about admission from any of the above.

DISCRETIONARY ENTRANCE Students under 20 without University Entrance If you are over 16 years of age and a New Zealand citizen or permanent resident, you may be eligible to apply for Discretionary Entrance (DE). Discretionary Entrance is based on NCEA Level 2 results and you must also meet the literacy and numeracy requirements for University Entrance. Students who have left school and did not achieve University Entrance from Level 3 are eligible to apply for DE following at least one semester break after completion of Year 13. All students are assessed on the basis of their academic background and an adviser’s recommendation. If you are still at school, or have left school recently, your school principal must be your adviser. If you have left school, a Student Recruitment Adviser at the University can help you. SPECIAL ADMISSION Students over the age of 20 If you left school without University Entrance and will be 20 years of age or over by the first day of the semester, you may apply for Special Admission.
