- Physical access to sites will generally only be to the public areas of those sites, unless granted specifically under arrangements Open Polytechnic has negotiated with those institutions.
- In some places, you may be asked to identify yourself as an Open Polytechnic ākonga (learner). An Open Polytechnic student ID card or MYOP account login may be required to show you are studying with us. See local campus provider details for specific requirements: "Access to local campus services"
