5 reasons why New Zealand is the Best Overseas Destination.webp
New Zealand is the most peaceful nation in the world, which makes it a big reason to be the most sought after study destination for international students and it provides an excellent education quality too. New Zealand follows a UK based education system that makes it a new favorite study destination. It has bagged a top position in the list of most preferred study abroad destination among international students. New Zealand has a mesmerizing beauty and a well-developed education system.

Following are the top 5 reasons to study in New Zealand:-

1. Globally recognized educational institutions

All the 8 major state-funded universities such as the University of Auckland, University of Otago, University of Canterbury, and others consistently maintain their spot among the top universities in the world and rank among the top 3% globally.

All the programs and courses offered by the university and colleges of New Zealand are to be approved by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA). Another complementary factor for Indian students is that the universities in New Zealand are based on the British education system.�

2. Career and research opportunities

The universities located in New Zealand have state of the art equipment, top-notch research facilities, highly qualified faculty & staff, and a vast campus. Over the years, owing to the advancement of technology and growth in applied sciences, New Zealand has made significant progress in various fields such as healthcare, engineering, IT, Physics, Geology, computer science, agriculture, and many more. As a result, it provides better career opportunities. According to the survey, nearly 97% of students graduating from NZ universities score a job, and almost 90% of them gain a job relevant to the course or degree they have pursued.

3. International exposure

The most important aspect of studying abroad is the exposure and cultural interaction the country has to offer. New Zealand has a very welcoming policy for international students, and therefore, students from all around the globe come to New Zealand for education.

A lot of students from countries like Japan, India, Australia, South America, and Europe have been dwelling towards New Zealand. This makes the overall study experience very metropolitan and cross-cultural. This multicultural experience widens one's perspective and expands their horizons.

4. Life and culture

New Zealand is one of the few countries that have successfully maintained a striking balance between the city and country life. It is known to be one of the safest places in the world, especially for students. You can enjoy the pleasures of city life as well as the leisure of the countryside all in one.

Additionally, Kiwis are often known as one of the most beautiful and friendliest people in the world. They extend their arms to people of all religions, countries, and color. New Zealand is blessed with abundant natural beauty, which enables students to take outdoor trips, go for hiking, visit picturesque locations, go for adventure sports, and so on.

5. Cost-effective tuition fee

As compared to other countries such as the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and Europe, New Zealand has a seemingly affordable cost of living. The country has cheaper housing facilities, transportation, education, and even the entire expenditure on the course is comparatively less. Public transportation is also a significant economic factor for it is very efficient yet cheap and student-friendly.
