    Dear University of Auckland,
I am writing to follow up on my request regarding the total number of enrolled law students. By law, you should have responded promptly by May 28, 2024.
Ngā mihi,
Education Vice President of the New Zealand Law Students' Association.
        From: Landon Watt
        University of Auckland
      
    
    Dear requester,
 
I refer to your requests of 30 April 2024 and 3 May 2024. The University’s
 response follows.
 
“I would like to request the following information for 2024:
 1. The total number of law students who are enrolled at the university,
 and
 2. The number of law students within each year level from:
 a. 1st year;
 b. 2nd year;
 c. 3rd year;
 d. 4th year; and
 e. 5th year and above.”
 
The University does not specifically track the academic year of each
 student due to the dynamic nature of their academic journey. Our students
 have the flexibility to switch programs, alter their enrolment status from
 full-time to part-time, or take breaks from their studies. Accordingly,
 the information requested has been provided by course stage (see
 attached).
 
“Along with my previous requests, may I also please request the following
 information:
 1. The number of law students who identify as:
 a. Asian
 b. European
 c. Māori
 d. MELAA (Middle Eastern, Latin American, and African)
 e. Pasifika
 d. Other
2. The number of law students who identify as
 a. Male
 b. Female
 c. Gender diverse”
 
The information requested is attached.
You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
 dissatisfied with the University’s response.
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Landon Watt
