 To
enrol by yourself in a New Zealand Course
is very simple. There is no need for an Agent if you follow few
steps. Unless English is not your main language, in this case you
can count with student agents
to help you in the process. Before the fist step, we recommend you
to check in the website
of the New Zealand Immigration to see if you will need a
pre-visa or not, and to decide he duration of your course.
Step By
Step to Enrol:
1) Choose the
City, the school and the
Course you want to attend. Send them an Email or call the school,
requesting all information needed such as starting dates, prices,
cost of the study material, cost of homestay or airport transfers,
etc...When you sure you want to study there, request an online
form (in their website or to send to you by email). Fill up the
form and send it back to them.
2) They will
send you Back a document
called "Offer of a Place" which describe the course,
duration, services contracted and total cost. Together, you will
find an "Invoice" for you to pay. This invoice is an
official document of payment. Most schools accepts Credit card
Payment or bank transfers, so pay it
3) They will
send you a receipt
and probably they will ask you questions when are you arriving,
number of flight (if you agreed with the airport transfer). Keep
this receipt to show to the Immigration at the airport. That is
it.
Note: If you
are from a country that New Zealand requires a pre-visa, then you
will need to present this receipt (and other documents) to the
Embassy of consulate representation closest to your home (or
country) to receive a pre-visa stamped in your passport.
To Enrol in
Vocational Courses or Universities in
New Zealand, the process is also the same but you will need to
send more documents to the Educational Institution such as proof
or English ability, diplomas of conclusion of previous courses in
your country, etc...These documents must be translated into
English and recognized as true copies of the original translation.
(send by fax or in PDF file). They will guide you in all
documentation necessary depending on the type of course you
decided.

you an "offer of place" and the bill to
be paid. |

for you to start your course |
Notes:
For courses less than 3 months you don't need a student visa. A
Tourist Visa (or permit) will be enough. Vocational courses and
University courses can be paid in parts (usually you pay every 6
months) Some schools can negotiate payment other don't. To stay in
a homestay, the minimum stay accepted is 4 week
Get ready to go
and don't forget to bring
something warm with you in the plane. New Zealand can be quite
cold during Winter time. That is it. "A Piece of Cake".
