Requirements Offer of a place
Your course must be approved by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA). Permit requirements
If you break any of these conditions we may revoke your permit. Insurance Requirements
International students must purchase their own insurance. The school needs to be provided with a copy of the insurance certificate and policy wordings so we may determine whether the insurance provides sufficient cover for the student's medical, travel and potential repatriation needs. It should be noted that costs such as medical treatment in New Zealand and medical evacuation or repatriation can be prohibitive. It is therefore imperative that sums insured for these benefits should be set at an appropriately high figure - ideally, this figure should be unlimited although the school will allow figures that it deems to be sufficiently high. The policy should: a. Commence the minute the student leaves home for the airport on their way to New Zealand.
Ideally, the policy should have ‘unlimited cover’ as very large sums can be incurred in these situations. Insurance policies for International students should be obtained from companies with a credit rating no lower than A from Standard and Poors, or B+ from AM Best. If the insurer is an overseas company, the school requires students to provide policy details in English so that it may ensure that all the necessary requirements are met. If, prior to enrolment, it is decided that a student does not have adequate insurance, the student will be required to take out additional cover to meet the standards set down by the school. (*immediate family is the mother, father, brother or sister).
