The Limitation of Entry Statute 1991

Pursuant to Section 255 of the Education and Training Act 2020 the Council of the University of Auckland hereby makes the following Statute:

1 a This statute may be cited as The Limitation of Entry Statute 1991.

b This Statute came into force on 1 January 1991.

2 Where the Council is satisfied that it is necessary to do so because:

a students cannot be allocated places in appropriate lecture rooms or laboratories at times when they can reasonably be expected to attend

or

b the number of teaching staff does not ensure all students expected to seek a place in a particular programme or course can be adequately taught; there shall be deemed to be an insufficiency of accommodation or of staff.

3 The maximum number of students that may be enrolled for any such programme or course shall be determined by the Council from time to time and be published in a schedule to this Statute.

4 In determining such maximum number of students the Council may:

a prescribe academic standards to be achieved as a prerequisite for enrolment for any such programme or course

and

b prescribe other criteria for selection of students to be permitted enrolment for any such programme or course.

5 The Limitation of Entry Statute 1985 is hereby repealed.

Note: The Limitations Schedule is available on the Programme and course limitations selection criteria page.
