Whakapiki Ake
Next Steps to Uni!
As part of the MAPAS General Interviews Day, Whakapiki Ake provides WAP students and whānau with the opportunity to stay for two nights in a University Hall of Residence. This stay ensures that students and their whānau can settle in, prepare, and make the most of their interview experience. It also creates a valuable space for whānau to connect and for students to build relationships with peers who are on the same journey.

Preparedness
During the stay, return transport is provided between the hall and the MAPAS General Interviews venue, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. After the interviews, students and whānau will have the opportunity to reflect on their day and discuss their provisional recommendations in a supportive environment. This dedicated time allows students to gain clarity on their next steps and make informed decisions about their academic future.
Readiness
To further support our tauira, all meals are provided throughout the stay, allowing students to focus fully on their journey without any added stress. This initiative is designed to ensure students feel comfortable, well-prepared, and supported as they navigate this important milestone. Next Steps to Uni dates will be advertised on our Facebook/IG page, so stay connected for updates.
