The Open Polytechnic of New Zealand operates on a rolling enrolment system, allowing students to apply and start studying most programs throughout the year. However, some courses may have specific intake periods or deadlines, particularly those with fixed start dates or group-based learning components.
For exact dates, prospective students should consult the official website or contact the admissions office directly. Generally, applications are accepted up to two weeks before a course starts, but early submission is recommended to secure placement and arrange funding if required.
