BDS general entry pathway seat allocation

Taisei Sano made this Official Information request to University of Otago

The request was partially successful.

From: Taisei Sano

Dear University of Otago,

I would like to request the number of seats that are going to be offered for admission into the bachelor of dental surgery for 2026 through the general graduate entry pathway. Moreover, I would like to request the seats that will be allocated to all graduate sub-categories and the total number of seat that will be allocated to graduate students.

This is as in the most recent request, the general graduate entry seats for the 2025 BDS cohort was shown to be less than 5 (<5), a decline from the previous years. I would like to also request the reason for the decrease in seats offered to the general graduate entry pathway for 2025.

Yours faithfully,

Taisei Sano
