If you are an international student with a with permanent, recurring or temporary impairment, Disability Information & Support may be able to help you. We can provide you with learning support, advice, advocacy and information.
As with any other student enrolling at the University of Otago, it is important that you check to ensure the University is able to meet your individual needs, though students should be aware that the maximum amount of additional time for tests and exams is 10 minutes per hour.
Depending on your status there may be costs associated with some support services that you may need to self-fund, so it is extremely important that you make contact at the time you are applying for admission to the University of Otago. We would also encourage you to obtain a letter from your home institution outlining the accommodations you have received and/or supply supporting documentation from a relevant professional.
