You can transfer from another tertiary institution, or another University of Auckland qualification. If you have started or completed tertiary study outside New Zealand, and want to study an undergraduate-level programme, your overseas qualification(s) must be approved for University admission.
Entry requirements
You will typically need to have completed one of the following to meet the minimum equivalent University Entrance standard:
- One semester of successful bachelor degree study from a New Zealand tertiary institution.
- One year of successful study as part of an acceptable sub-degree qualification from a New Zealand tertiary institution.
- One year successful bachelor-degree level study at a recognised university (or similar institution) overseas.
If you have finished secondary school you may already meet the minimum acceptable equivalents of the University Entrance Standard
If you are applying for admission based on prior tertiary study you must meet admission, programme and undergraduate English language requirements. To see the entry requirements (by country) for your intended programme(s), visit Find a study option.
