Subject: Official Information request - Graduate Entry Medical

[You don't often get email from [FOI #32481 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear University of Waikato,

Tēnā koe,

Under the provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, I am requesting information regarding the recently announced Graduate Medical Degree at the University of Waikato.

Specifically, I seek clarification on the following matters:
1. Whether a student who holds a three-year undergraduate degree, in which one academic year was credited through recognition of prior learning (RPL) or prior experience, would be considered eligible to apply for entry into the graduate medical degree programme.
2. Whether a copy of the official graduate entry provisions, policies, or criteria for the programme has been issued, and if so, whether this can be provided.

If these provisions are still in draft or under development, please confirm when they are expected to be released publicly.

I am making this request as a member of the public and not on behalf of any organisation. Please provide the information electronically via email.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response within the statutory 20 working days as required under the Act.

Yours faithfully,

I Munro
