Who is this available to

This service is accessible to all students with an application to the University of Otago and/or an eVision account who meet the criteria to require ancestry verification.

How do I access it

You can request verification of your ancestry in eVision:

  1. Log in to eVision
  2. Go to My details.
  3. Click the Request ancestry verification link.
  4. Follow the instructions on the page to request verification of your ancestry with the University of Otago.

If ancestry verification is required before you begin your studies, you need to arrange for this well in advance of the start of the academic year, so that you don't have to wait for your information to be confirmed before you can access resources and University websites. Depending on the circumstances of your ancestry verification request, you may be asked to provide additional documentation or there might be other aspects of this process that cause additional delays.
