Kia or University of Otago,

I am writing to make a formal request under the New Zealand Official Information Act 1982. I would like to obtain information regarding the minimum and mean GPA/Score of successful applicants to certain academic courses, within certain categories and subcategories, for the most recent academic year for which data is available. Please provide weighted GPA or score where applicable to the entrance category (e.g. Postgraduate Medicine weighted GPA, or HSFY Medicine score).
Specifically, I am requesting the minimum and mean GPA/Score for each of the following courses:
1. Medicine
2. Dentistry
3. Physiotherapy
4. Dental Technology
5. Medical Laboratory Science
6. Oral Health
7. Pharmacy
8. Radiation Therapy

For each course listed, I would like the data to be further categorised into the following groups:
1. Postgraduate
2. HSFY (Health Sciences First Year)
And within each category, the following subcategories:
1. Māori
2. NZRIPO (New Zealand Residents of Indigenous Pacific Origins)
3. Socioeconomic Equity
4. Refugee Background
5. New Zealand Rural Origins
Where applicable, I would also appreciate data reflecting Single Programme Preference applications.

A similar request was fulfilled for 2023 entrants a year ago (see https://fyi.org.nz/request/23430/respons...), but I would like to request the same data for the 2024 entrants.

Please let me know if you have any questions, or require further clarification of the request or its scope. Thank you for your attention to this matter, it is appreciated.

Many thanks,
Josiah.
