Admission to the second year of the Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPhty) is competitive, and will depend on your academic record.

A university entrance qualification is essential for admission to the University of Otago for all types of programmes. You must also be at least 16 years of age by the first day of classes in your period of study and meet English language requirements.
