Dear James,

 

I refer to your request of 9 August 2024. The University's response
follows.

 

" please provide the following details for all categories (First Year,
General, MAPAS, UTAS, RRAS etc) for admissions in 2022, 2023 and 2024
(most recent cohort admitted to MbChB):

 

- mean successful gpa

- lowest successful gpa

- mean successful ucat

- lowest successful ucat"

 

You have already requested this information for 2022 and 2023 on 11
December 2023 and received the University’s response on 16 February 2024.
The University provided you with these statistics for First Year and
Graduate General, MAPAS, and RRAS applicants, and withheld the requested
statistics for the Students with Disabilities, Low Socio-economic, and
Refugee Background UTAS on privacy grounds under section 9(2)(a) of the
OIA. Your request, and the University’s response, is publicly available at
[1]https://fyi.org.nz/request/25135-mbchb-e....
Your request to be provided with the information that you received on 16
February 2024 is refused under section 18(d) of the OIA, as the
information requested is publicly available. Your request for information
that the University has already refused to provide you is refused under
the same ground, section 9(2)(a) of the OIA. We will treat further
requests for the same information as vexatious.

 

For your request for admissions information about the 2024 MBChB cohort,
see the University’s response to a request for the same information at
[2]https://fyi.org.nz/request/26299-2018-20....
Your request for information concerning First Year and Graduate General,
MAPAS, and RRAS applicants is refused under section 18(d) of the OIA, as
the information requested is publicly available. Your request for
information concerning the Students with Disabilities, Low Socio-economic,
and Refugee Background UTAS is refused on privacy grounds under section
9(2)(a) of the OIA.

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this response.

 

Yours sincerely,
