Pay tuition fees

Tuition fees must be paid in New Zealand dollars using any one of the following means:

• Internet banking (NZ bank account holders)
• Convera
• Telegraphic transfer
• Government student loan – StudyLink
• Payment at AskOtago (Dunedin campus only)
• Scholarship
• Third party payments

You can pay your fees in part, so long as the total value (as indicated on your invoice) is paid by the due date. Fees cannot be paid in instalments throughout the year.

You will only be charged for the papers you are enrolled in. If you are a domestic student, you may wish to add your papers one semester at a time. If you are receiving living costs of a student allowance through Studylink while doing this, check with them in advance, as enrolling each semester may impact which financial assistance you are eligible for. Some courses are entirely pre-prescribed (such as the Health Sciences First Year programme). In these cases, you cannot enrol one semester at a time.

How do I pay tuition fees

   • Bank Account Name: University of Otago
   • SWIFT Code: ANZBNZ22 (for payments outside New Zealand)
2. Include your name and student ID number in the reference.
3. For international bank transfers, use the first six digits of your bank account number as the clearing code.

The same details can be used for telegraphic transfer.

To make Convera payments:
