Before you apply
Confirm that the programme is open to international students and check the exact teaching campus before planning accommodation.
Open the provider’s official international-student page.
Confirm the exact qualification, NZQF level, campus, duration and next available intake.
Read academic, English-language and programme-specific entry requirements.
Calculate tuition, compulsory course costs and realistic living expenses.
Check whether placements, portfolios, interviews, registration or additional checks apply.
Admission and student visa are separate decisions
A provider decides admission against its published entry criteria. Immigration New Zealand makes the visa decision under current immigration instructions. Neither the provider, Sorena Visa nor an adviser can guarantee an immigration outcome.
Sorena can coordinate admission support and, where engaged, arrange regulated immigration work through appropriately qualified New Zealand professionals. Recommendations should be based on suitability—not only on provider commission.
