Yes, with a budget of ₹30 - 35 lakh, you can afford a one-year master's program in New Zealand, covering tuition, living expenses, and key additional costs.
- Tuition: Most master's programs range from ₹13 - 18.5 lakh/year.
- Living expenses: Expect ₹60,000 - 90,000/month, depending on the city.
- Visa fee: Around ₹40,000 (subject to change).
- Health insurance: Typically ₹35,000 - 50,000/year (subject to change).
Your budget is suitable for a full year of study and living in New Zealand. Scholarships and post-study work visa (PSW) options may further improve affordability and career prospects.
