Yes, after completing your PTE or IELTS and achieving the required scores, you still need to apply for admission to universities in New Zealand.
Your English test scores are just one part of the application. You must also submit your academic documents, meet other eligibility criteria, and complete the formal application process to receive an offer of admission.
