New Zealand study visa policy in 2023

A visa is a necessary pass to study in New Zealand. What are the visa requirements? Let me introduce these policies to you.

In 2023, New Zealand's visa policy for studying abroad has been opened, and visa processing has resumed. From 2022120, all passengers who take international flights to New Zealand will not need to apply for NZTD declaration. At the same time, all travelers entering New Zealand will no longer need to provide COVID-19 vaccination certificate and negative nucleic acid test certificate before departure.

Important documents Before starting your study and life trip in New Zealand, please remember to prepare the following documents in advance:

●? Passport with valid student visa (students who hold non-Chinese mainland passports and do not need a student visa for short-term courses need to apply for e-visa NZeTA).

●? Transit visa (if you need to transit in other countries before arriving in New Zealand, please consult the embassy of the transit country in advance about the visa)

●? birth certificate

●? Emergency contact information (contact information of parents, banks, embassies and consulates)

●? Diagnostic certificate (related contents are also introduced in detail later ~)

●? Copy of admission notice, contact information of the school.

Studying in New Zealand has the following advantages:

1, high quality of education.

As a Commonwealth education country, New Zealand's mother tongue is English and attaches great importance to the quality of education. Different from the domestic higher education model, in New Zealand's education system, test scores are only one dimension to evaluate students' ability, not the only one. In learning, students are encouraged to study and explore spontaneously, and their thinking ability, learning ability and innovation ability are cultivated.

2. The cost of studying abroad is moderate.

Under normal circumstances, the annual tuition fee for undergraduate courses in New Zealand universities is 65,438+00 ~ 200,000 RMB. Master's course tuition/kloc-0.5 ~ 250,000 RMB a year. The doctor is subsidized by the Ministry of Education of New Zealand, and the tuition fee is only 30,000 ~ 40,000 RMB!

The living expenses of international students depend on the consumption level of the city where the institution is located. A big city like Auckland needs 6.5438+200,000 RMB per year to meet normal life. Like Hamilton and Tauranga, where the University of Waikato is located, 80,000 to 90,000 RMB a year is almost the same.

From the perspective of time cost, the undergraduate education system in New Zealand is 3-4 years, and the postgraduate education system is 1~ 1.5 years. It is normal for domestic students to study hard and get a master's degree in five years. Compared with seven years of undergraduate study in China, studying in New Zealand has more advantages in time.

3. The application threshold is low and the academic system is flexible.

The high cost performance of studying in New Zealand is not only reflected in the low cost of studying abroad, but also in the fact that the threshold for applying for studying abroad is lower than that of other countries.

It is not too difficult for domestic students who have fought many battles to apply for the undergraduate course of the Eighth National University of New Zealand. You can apply if you reach the national second grade or above.

If English does not reach IELTS 6.5, you can apply now, and then New Zealand universities will provide language courses. If you pass the language course exam, you can formally study.

In addition, New Zealand's academic system is very flexible! Students can not only change their study plans according to their personal situation at that time, but also change their majors, and universities can choose again!

4. Immigration prospects

As a traditional immigrant country, New Zealand has accepted immigrants from all over the world, so it is very inclusive and its study abroad policy is loose.

If international students can successfully complete the courses recognized by academic qualifications, they can get a three-year work visa after graduation, regardless of the type of institution. Students with this visa can enjoy the same tax and pension benefits as locals!
