Criteria for Dentistry Interview Selection for HSFY General Category, 2025 entry

Mar made this Official Information request to University of Otago

The request was partially successful.

From: Mar

Dear University of Otago,

I am requesting for what the criteria is to now receive a 2025 entry interview for BDS. As this year the UCAT has been removed as an entry requirement, which historically had thresholds that needed to be met in order to obtain an interview, I'm wondering how it will now work for particularly the HSFY General Category applicants to receive an interview.

Will there be a minimum semester 1 4-paper average needed to be able to obtain one out of the pool of applicants? Or will it work slightly differently to this - please specify all detail.

Yours faithfully,

Mar
