Can I select a two-year course option for my master's in New Zealand instead of one or one and a half years?
Yes, you can choose a two-year master's course in New Zealand. While many master's programs are 1 - 1.5 years, some universities offer two-year options, especially for research-focused or extended coursework degrees.
Eligibility depends on your academic background and the specific program requirements. With your four-year Computer Science degree and a 6.35 GPA, you may qualify for these longer programs, but entry criteria vary by university.
If you need help finding suitable two-year master's options, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you through the process.
