New Zealand

New Zealand is renowned for its exceptional education system and welcoming environment, making it a sought-after destination for international students. With over 26,000 international students currently enrolled, the country’s size, similar to that of the UK, and low population of 4.6 million make it easy to navigate and less crowded.
To prioritize the safety and well-being of international students, New Zealand has implemented a Pastoral Care Code of Practice. The country’s unique culture and stunning natural environment, offering endless opportunities for adventure and sports, make it a popular choice for students looking for an exotic destination to study. Furthermore, the New Zealand education system is highly acclaimed globally for its quality, ranked seventh in the world, surpassing many OECD countries. As a former British colony, the education system follows the European model with minor differences. Students can pursue undergraduate, postgraduate, research, higher, and vocational degrees. Tuition fees are applicable annually, ranging from NZ$18,000-$25,000 for undergraduate courses and up to $40,000 for postgraduate courses. Studying in New Zealand means being a part of a world-class education system that offers diverse opportunities for personal and academic growth.

VISA Process

As an international full-time student studying in New Zealand (NZ), you need one of
the three types of study visa:

• Fee-paying student visa: for students studying full-time for up to four years
• Foreign government-supported student visa: for students who are receiving a
  scholarship or loan from a foreign government to fund studies
• Pathway student visa: for students who will be studying more than one
  program consecutively

If you are an international student planning to study in New Zealand, you will most
likely need a fee-paying student visa. To apply for this visa online from outside of NZ, the cost is NZ$295. However, depending on your nationality, applying for a permit via
post may be more cost-effective.

Fee Paying Student Visa

As an individual from overseas, you can apply for a visa to pursue full-time studies in New Zealand. To do so, you must cover the total expenses of your courses and
register with an authorized educational institution. During your stay, you can benefit
