Enrolment Process
Enrolments for 2023 and 2024 (day students and boarders) are now open and welcome.
Currently Otago Boys’ High School does not have a zone. This means students living in any area of Dunedin, or further afield, can attend our school.
Otago Boys’ High School invites students to complete the online enrolment form and submit it to the school.
Day Boys
Enrolment Form – Online (preferred method)
Following receipt of the enrolment form families are contacted and invited to meet with the Rector. This is an opportune time to discuss subjects, uniform, co-curricular activities and your son’s interests. Tours of the school are also offered.
If a printed enrolment form is required copies can be obtained from the school office.
Enrolment Form – Printed (alternative method)
An Open Evening is held at the beginning of Term 3 each year and all families are invited to attend to learn about what Otago Boys’ offers and to meet the staff.
For further information on enrolment you are welcome to phone the school on 03 474 3042.
Boarding
Applications for Year 9: Applications for boarders need to be received at the latest by 1st May during the year prior to entry.
Enrolment interviews for prospective Year 9 students take place during term 1 and 2 in the year prior to entry (i.e. when the student is in Year 8). A Hostel Open Day is held during term 2 each year for prospective families to meet the Director of Boarding and have a tour of the hostel.
