Both the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic are looking forward to welcoming you onto their campuses! This event is open to any students who would like to come along. It is a great opportunity to see the opportunities that exist at both the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic, and to help with your future planning. We strongly encourage all Year 13 students to attend, and also Year 12 students who are considering study in the future.

Please note that the ‘full expo of academic and student support’ will be run on Sunday as well as Monday. We hope this gives you more flexibility to plan your day(s).
