The opportunity to expand your horizons, as well as gain an excellent academic experience at the University of Otago, is one I encourage you to take. I was fortunate enough to spend the last year of my high school education on exchange in Japan, and it was an experience that has had a lifelong impact, both personally and professionally. As well as providing a high quality education, the University of Otago is located in one of the most scenic parts of the world and Dunedin offers a student lifestyle unlike any other city in Australasia. Founded in 1869, the University of Otago is an integral part of the local community, and we value the contribution students from other countries make to the cultural diversity of both the campus and the city. I challenge you to take up the opportunity to learn more about the internationally renowned “Otago Experience”, and look forward to welcoming you to Dunedin and the University of Otago.

Having not had much experience with a residential university community in the past, it has been a real eye opener to see just how far collegiate leaders and staff go to ensure that every resident feels supported and right at home in their college. Each college has its own unique qualities, just as its residents do, and it’s these unique qualities that help to nurture and guide academic achievements, encourage community pride and develop a healthy sense of competition both within and between the colleges. A perfect example of this community pride and competition is the annual Inter-College Sport and Cultural Competition. Every collegiate community comes together to battle for glory and bragging rights, whether it be on the field, the court, on the stage or big screen.
