After completing a one-and-a-half-year course, can I do another one-year course within the allowed time period in New Zealand/UAE?
Yes, you can pursue a one-year course after completing a one-and-a-half-year course, as long as you meet the visa requirements for your chosen country.
- New Zealand: Student visas are usually granted for the course duration, up to 4 years. After your first course, you must apply for a new visa for the next course. Your new course must be NZQA-approved, and you’ll need to show proof of funds and health insurance. Visa rules are subject to change.
- UAE: Student residence visas are typically issued for one year and can be renewed annually. You’ll need to work with your institution to renew or extend your visa for the next course. Requirements and procedures may vary.
