If you are unsure about any aspect of your study, the University of Otago has dedicated advisers to help. Course advice is about giving you the information and guidance you need to get the most from your study.
Advisers can help you with:
- Choosing the degree and papers that are right for you
- Considering your career aspirations and how your study fits
- Making sure that you've got the right combination of papers to meet regulations
- Planning what you want to study
- What to do if you have failed a paper
You can seek course advice at any stage — from before you start studying, right through to your final year.
If you haven't yet enrolled, contact one of our Schools' Liaison Officers for course advice support.
Once you're enrolled, you can seek advice from an adviser in Student Development in a variety of ways:
