Do you wish to commence your higher education in a land where sparkling lakes meet vibrant cities, where learning isn’t confined to lecture halls but thrives in nature, innovation, and community? That’s New Zealand for you! A world-class study destination and a go-to choice for international students. But beyond its spectacular beauty, New Zealand’s eight Government-Funded (Public) Universities offer a powerful combination of academic excellence, affordability, and long-term career opportunities.

Additionally, the New Zealand Government has set a bold target to double its international education market to NZD 7.2 billion by 2034, a clear signal that global students are not just welcomed, but increasingly prioritised. Furthermore, these Public Universities educate a huge cohort. At present, they serve over 180,000 students, underlining how central public institutions are to New Zealand’s higher-education ecosystem.
