jorja made this Official Information request to University of Auckland

Currently waiting for a response from University of Auckland, they must respond promptly and normally no later than (details and exceptions).

From: jorja

Dear University of Auckland,

Under the Official Information Act 1982, I request the following information regarding admission seat allocations for the University of Auckland medical programme:

1. The total number of domestic places available in the medical programme for each year from 2015 to 2026.

2. The number of places allocated under the UTAS (Undergraduate Targeted Admission Scheme) disability pathway for each of those years.

3. Any internal documents, reports, or reviews that discuss the allocation or review of UTAS disability pathway places during this period.

4. Any analysis undertaken by the faculty or the Equity Office regarding proportionality for students with disabilities when determining UTAS reserved places.

5. The rationale for maintaining two UTAS disability places despite increases in the total number of domestic seats.

6. Any plans or discussions within the university about increasing UTAS disability pathway places in the future.

For context, publicly available information from FYI states that domestic medical programme places increased from 257 in 2015 to 317 in 2026, while UTAS disability places remained at two.
