Yes, you can apply directly from India to low-fee colleges in New Zealand for master's programs if you meet the entry requirements.

Most institutions require:
- Bachelor’s degree with at least 50-60% marks (your 62% in Commerce is typically sufficient)
- English proficiency, usually an IELTS score of 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0 (subject to change and may be waived in some cases)
- Relevant work experience can be an advantage but is not always mandatory

Tuition fees vary by institution and program, and are subject to change.

Given your profile with a bachelor’s degree, 62% marks, and 5 years of work experience, you meet the general criteria for many programs.

Low percentage, study gap or no work experience?
