About University of Otago Visitors' Centre

University of Otago Visitors' Centre is a visitor centre on Cumberland Street in Dunedin North, Dunedin. It has a 4.8 rating on Google. The University of Otago is New Zealand's oldest university, and its campus sits beside the Octagon area and the Leith stream.

A good visitor centre gives clear, friendly information, helps you plan your time and points you to what is worth seeing. At a university, that usually means maps of the campus, information about courses and open days, and help for prospective students and their families, as well as details about historic buildings and events on campus. Regulars know that an open day or campus tour is the best way to see lecture theatres, libraries and halls of residence, that Dunedin's student year runs from late February and that staff can point you to accommodation, scholarships and enrolment steps. The clock tower and other historic buildings make the campus a pleasant walk. Check opening hours, which can change in holidays, and bring any questions about courses or entry requirements.
