University Entrance

UNIVERSITY ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

Entry to University

University Entrance (UE) will continue to be the minimum requirement to go to a New Zealand university.

To gain University Entrance you must have the following?

	NCEA Level 3: (60 credits Level 3 or higher credits + 20 credits Level 2+)
	Subject A		Subject B		Subject C
+	14 credits at Level 3 or above in an approved subject	+	14 credits at Level 3 or higher in an approved subject	+	14 credits at Level 3 or higher in an approved subject	=	A minimum of 42 credits of the 60 credits must be from 3 approved subjects

+	5 credits at Level 2 or above in Reading	+	5 credits at Level 2 or above in Writing	=	10 credits from an approved list of Level 2 or 3 Standards
+	10 credits in Maths at Level 1 or higher from approved standards

To Clarify:

All Level 3 courses at Papanui High School provide credits that count towards NCEA Level 3.
NCEA Level 3 can be gained without achieving University Entrance - it depends on your choice of subjects.
University Entrance can only be achieved by taking at least 3 subjects from the Approved Subject list.
In each Level 3 course outline it will state if that course is on approved subject list for University Entrance.

Please Note: Credits gained from the courses in the table below will count towards NCEA Level 3 but will not count towards University Entrance as the courses are not on the approved subject list.
