Can I skip IELTS for New Zealand university admission?+
Yes! If you scored 75%+ in Class 12 (CBSE/ICSE) with 60%+ in English, most NZ universities will waive the IELTS requirement entirely. PTE Academic, TOEFL, and Duolingo are also accepted alternatives. For students who need IELTS, Jaivik Overseas provides in-house coaching at our Crossing Republik centre โ€” target score in 4โ€“8 weeks.
What is the New Zealand Post-Study Work Visa duration?+
The Post-Study Open Work Visa (PSWV) duration depends on your qualification: 3 years for bachelor's or master's graduates from a designated NZ university; 2 years for diploma/graduate diploma; 1 year for shorter qualifications. The 3-year PSWV is an open visa โ€” work for any employer, in any city, in any role โ€” giving you time to find a skilled job and progress to PR.
What is the Green List and how does it help Indian students get PR?+
NZ's Green List is a list of in-demand occupations where workers can apply for direct residency (PR) after working for 2 years in NZ. Key Green List jobs for Indian students include: registered nurses, engineers, IT specialists, school teachers, midwives, and more. Indian graduates also no longer need to pay NZQA International Qualification Assessment fees when applying for Green List residency pathways.
What financial proof is required for New Zealand student visa?+
You must show you have sufficient funds: NZD 20,000 per year for living expenses PLUS your full tuition fees. Funds must be shown via 3-month bank statements.

Is New Zealand better than Canada or Australia for Indian students in 2026?+
For many Indian students in 2026, NZ is the smarter choice: Canada has drastically cut international student numbers and tightened PGWP rules. Australia raised visa income requirements and tightened PR pathways. Meanwhile, NZ has increased work hours (25/week), maintained its 3-year post-study work visa, expanded Green List PR, and waived NZQA fees for Indian applicants. All 8 NZ universities rank in the global top 3%. Jaivik Overseas will give you a detailed, honest comparison in your free counselling session.
