From: Sarah Samson
Dear University of Canterbury,
I request under the Official Information Act 1982, all guidance and references to criteria on admissions to Halls of Residence. In particular, how Halls balance fairness across applicants, including ratio of students from private versus public school Also, I would like any information on how all Halls determine if students have made the applications themselves - or if their schools have made them on their behalf.
Yours faithfully,
