University of New Zealand - Entrance To The University

Entrance To The University

The University used to set its own entrance examination and also used to award scholarships to financially assist study. When the university was dissolved matters concerning entrance to New Zealand universities became the responsibility of the Universities Entrance Board, a subcommittee of the University Grants Committee. The Universities Entrance Board was in turn amalgamated into the New Zealand Qualifications Authority in 1990.

Famous quotes containing the words entrance and/or university:

    The raven himself is hoarse
    That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
    Under my battlements.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    To get a man soundly saved it is not enough to put on him a pair of new breeches, to give him regular work, or even to give him a University education. These things are all outside a man, and if the inside remains unchanged you have wasted your labour. You must in some way or other graft upon the man’s nature a new nature, which has in it the element of the Divine.
    William Booth (1829–1912)
