Dear Requestor,

 

I refer to your request of 28 November 2025. As consultations necessary to
make a decision on your request are such that a response cannot reasonably
be given within the original time limit, the University has extended the
time limit for your request by 20 working days under section 15A(1)(b) of
the OIA.

 

The new maximum time limit for the University’s response is 17 February
2026; we will respond to your request as soon as reasonably practicable.

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this extension.

 

Yours sincerely,

Farleigh Quinlivan

Subject: Official Information request - MBChB MMI invite GPA for 2026
Intake - RRAS Graduate Category Information

 

Dear University of Auckland,

I request the following information in relation to selection for the 2026
MBChB intake.

In the published 2026 Entry MMI invite GPA summary, the RRAS-Grad category
for MBChB is shown with a single minimum GPA of 7.5 for MMI invitation,
while the General Graduate category is split into separate “Gen-Grad (in
progress)” and “Gen-Grad (completed)” GPAs.

[1] Please clarify how GPAs for RRAS graduate applicants are assessed for
MMI invitation. Specifically, are separate minimum GPAs applied to:
(a). RRAS graduate applicants with a completed qualifying degree; and
(b). RRAS graduate applicants with an in-progress qualifying degree.

[2] If separate thresholds are used for RRAS graduates, please provide the
minimum GPA  required for MMI invitation in the 2026 MBChB admission cycle
for:
(a). RRAS graduates with a completed qualifying degree; and
(b). RRAS graduates with an in-progress qualifying degree.

[3] If no separate thresholds are used for RRAS graduates, please confirm
that the published RRAS-Grad GPA of 7.5 represents the minimum GPA for all
RRAS graduate applicants invited to MMI for the 2026 MBChB intake,
regardless of whether their degree was completed or in progress.

Yours faithfully,

E. Cameron
