ACT says Auckland University should pay back thousands of students - who did compulsory Treaty of Waitangi and Te Ao Maori courses
1 October 2025
The university's senate has now recommended making the courses optional - after criticism from staff, students and politicians.
ACT spokesperson, Parmjeet Parmar, says more than eight-thousand students had to take the course this year.
She says international students paid nearly six-thousand dollars.
Parmar says students had to change courses and push them back because of the paper.
