Ngā rā whakauru

On this page you can see how you can find the key dates for our programmes and courses.

Application dates

The application date is the latest date you can submit an enrolment application to study a course to be able to start on time. 

If you are enrolling in a programme for the first time, the application date may be well before the start date of the first course in the programme.  

Please note, enrolment application close-off dates are subject to change.  Enrol as soon as possible to ensure we receive your application in time.  

The following programmes have special application dates if you are enrolling for the first time. The application date is shown on the programme page. 

All other programmes have application dates that close two weeks before the start date of the course. If you have already enrolled in a programme and are selecting the next course(s), the close-off date will be two weeks before the start date of each course.  

Start dates

The start dates for course offerings are shown on the course page. The start dates for course offerings are shown up to 12 months ahead. Offerings for the next calendar year are normally available by October. 

For example, the following course has an offering starting every month. The first four months, September to December, are open for enrolment. The 2024 offerings will be opened and available for enrolment soon.

The following course is offered three times each year (October, February and July). October is open for enrolment but February and July in 2024 are not yet open. 

You can click on the month to see the start date. 

Course duration and end dates

Each course offering has a duration (enrolment period), which is the number of weeks between the start and the end date. 

The course duration could be 12, 16, 19, 20, 32 or 52 weeks. Check the individual course offering to see the duration for each course. Please note that the withdrawal dates are affected by the course duration.
