Otago University Entrance for International Students

Mrs J Elliotte —

It is with great pleasure that we can advise our international students of their guaranteed entry to undergraduate programmes at the University of Otago.

As an international student at Columba College, you will have a guaranteed place at the University of Otago when you apply for any general undergraduate degree programme (excludes restricted programmes), if you are successfully awarded University Entrance upon completion of your studies with us.

This demonstrates a direct and desired pathway for our international cohort and we thank the University of Otago for its ongoing support of our students.

It was with pleasure that we were able to welcome students, families, hosts, and agents to Columba for a BBQ on Friday night. After three years of these types of events on hold, we had a group of about 30 people together to meet, greet, and eat! The international committee did all of the organising, from invitations to menu, cooking, and clean up!

We are looking forward to many more opportunities to come together as a community and thank those who were able to make it on the night.
