something that was mine to do. Nursing is it for me and I got accepted for both
Auckland and here but chose to come to NorthTec because of the more flexible
curriculum and fewer financial barriers. I had no qualifications and minimal

urbanized Māori and NorthTec really enables Māori to succeed. I also didn’t
