What Makes New Zealand Special for International Students?
Many of my friends asked me “Why New Zealand?” when I revealed where I was studying abroad. I had no idea how to give them a straightforward answer without skipping any important details. Now, when I am about to complete my studies there, I can write hours about the country.
Though resembles the Great Britain and Japan in size, New Zealand has a lot to offer to the ones who are staying, working and studying there. That’s the reason why the number of international students studying in the country is gradually increasing.
If you have scored enough in the Pearson test of English, completed all the formalities and are going to take a flight to the fantastic world of New Zealand, following five things about the country will help you calm down and draw a picture of this beautiful land:
- New Zealand is known for its amazingly beautiful landscapes. The country has a unique biodiversity, with a lack of giant, killer insects. (Which is always a great thing, unless you are into that). Natives of New Zealand are very welcoming to the outsiders.
- The economy of the country is stable, and the cost of living is lower than other English-speaking countries. A stable economy keeps on creating jobs.
- Nothing can get better than New Zealand’s weather. The winters are mild and slightly wet. You will see snow in higher altitudes, but the scenario is not common at the lower altitude.
- The country has a world-class education system, and that’s the main reason why students from different parts of the world love to study in New Zealand. The tuition fee is comparatively lower, degrees provided by the universities are recognised worldwide, and education standards are unmatched.
- The visa process is incredibly smooth, and your application will hardly be rejected right away. If you have explained why you need to go there and your international studies program helps you create a Statement of Purpose, you will surely get a visa. An interesting advantage is that after you complete your graduation, you can work in New Zealand for up to one year.
