Second, living expenses.

An international student spends about 200 yuan every week, which is NZD 8000- 1 1000 a year.

stay

The more economical way is to share a house, kitchen, laundry room, etc. But students with better economic conditions can choose the following ways:

1, student dormitory: generally located in or near the school, with single or double rooms and public fitness facilities. Most student dormitories provide three meals a day, and some schools do not provide lunch on weekends. The cost of student dormitory is about 130- 160 NZD per week, including meals.

2. Host family: The cost of a host family is about NZ $ 230-280 per week, including meals.

3. Apartment: The cost is about NZD $ 130- 160 per week. Students need 30-40 New Zealand dollars for meals and other living expenses.

For living expenses, if there are reasonable arrangements for daily consumption, living expenses can be greatly saved.

For example, accommodation, which accounts for the main part of daily living expenses, can be shared with classmates and friends, thus reducing rent and water and electricity network costs. But the prices of apartments and townhouses in the city center will go up a lot.

board wages

Eating out in New Zealand is a bit expensive, but the ingredients are very cheap. If you cook by yourself or with your roommate and reduce the number of times you eat out, you can effectively control your expenses, then the weekly food expenses will be about 40 Singapore dollars.

transportation charge

Taking public transport, walking and cycling to class are all very fast and cheap ways, but booking train tickets and air tickets in advance and choosing round-trip air tickets can also save a considerable amount.

insurance

Student insurance must be purchased for studying abroad for two years or more, and for studying abroad for less than two years, the New Zealand Immigration Bureau also strongly recommends purchasing student insurance. 1 year student insurance (including travel, medical care and property) needs about S $500. However, dental problems are not covered by insurance, so it is best for students to solve their dental problems before going abroad to avoid unnecessary troubles.

Matters needing attention in studying in New Zealand

1, get to school early

It is best to arrange yourself one week in advance, so that you can get familiar with the school and community environment and win an adaptation time. In addition, when choosing flights, try to avoid arriving on weekends or holidays. Foreigners attach great importance to rest days.

2. Residence

From the safety point of view, the safety factors are ranked from high to low, namely, dormitories in the school, foreign families around the school (about 10 minutes' walk), rented apartments near the school (about 10 minutes' walk), and finally foreign families or apartments a little farther away. If you live off campus, you must choose a community with good security, not remote, close to the school, good landlord, non-staff and immigrants.

Be careful when making friends, and don't borrow money indiscriminately.

New Zealand students are in a foreign land, so be careful when making friends and don't borrow money from each other. An unavoidable embarrassing fact is that many China people were deceived overseas and later found to be "one of their own", so they "do harm to others but not to themselves".

Step 4: ideas

Don't show off your wealth, no matter how rich your family is, don't spend money indiscriminately, and don't discuss your financial situation with others; Parents had better give their children living expenses regularly, and don't give them a large sum of money at once, especially for small international students. Moreover, it is necessary to guide children's financial management ability and correct concept of wealth to prevent the dangers that children may encounter after revealing wealth.
