Fees - What they cover, Payment Methods

Not only world-class in quality, the cost of education in New Zealand is very competitive compared to other countries.

You will need to pay in advance, because proof of payment is needed to get a student visa or permit. There is usually an application or processing fee that is not refundable, even if your application is not successful.

Method of Payment

Through the institution's agent in your country - GeeBee

Cancellation and Refunds

The Education Amendment Act 1991 protects tuition fees.

If you cancel before the course starts, for instance because your visa or visa extension is not granted, or you are transferring to another institution, most or all of your tuition fee will be refunded, except for the registration and processing fees.

If you cancel in the first week or so of the course, only part of your fee will be refunded. After that, you probably will not get any refund at all.
