Why New Zealand is a hotspot for Indian students

AHMEDABAD, India - June 17, 2024 - PRLog -- Island country New Zealand has become a popular study abroad destination with about 28,725 international students enrolled in its higher education institutes. Statistics show that about 2,664 Indian students were studying in New Zealand in 2022 and the interest of studying in New Zealand for Indian students was steadily increasing.  Overseas education consultants suggest that this interest will gradually rise owing to the country's fabulous offering for students.

New Zealand is known for its cool climate, breathtaking views, and multicultural society. Indian students prefer the country for its world-class education system, and opportunities to settle down after completing education. Leading overseas education consultant MSM Unify's team listed these reasons for Indian students to study in New Zealand:

1. Quality Education: New Zealand offers high-quality higher education. The country has about 8 universities which provide a variety of study programs. The University of Auckland was ranked as the top university in New Zealand in the QS World University Rankings 2024. Overall, it had 68th rank on the global list. Other than this, other universities such as the University of Otago, Massey University, and the Victoria University of Wellington too were listed in the top 250 rankings.
2. Affordable Tuition Fees: New Zealand higher education is subsidized when compared to other study destinations like Canada, the United States or the United Kingdom. Typically, an undergraduate program or Bachelor's degree fee ranges between INR 10 -16 Lakh annually. The postgraduate program or Master's degree fee ranges between INR 13 - 19 Lakh annually.
3. Ample Work Opportunities: New Zealand is an upcoming economy. Though it's a small island nation it's ramping up its infrastructure and thus abundant jobs for all. New Zealand's post-study work visa permits international students to gain work experience after completing their education. This is a great opportunity to explore a job and later settle in the country.
4. Safe and Multicultural Society: Studying in New Zealand offers Indian students a chance to explore its safe and welcoming society. This country ranks among the safest nations globally, especially for women and specially-abled prospects. It has a low crime rate and a strong focus on diversity and inclusion.
