Is the University of Waikato in New Zealand affordable and am I eligible to apply based on my academic percentage for a Postgraduate?
25 Jun 2026 · Answered by Rakshitha Muthukumar · 1 min read
You are eligible to apply to the University of Waikato based on your 81% graduation score in Commerce, which meets their typical minimum requirement for Indian students.
For affordability, tuition fees for postgraduate programs at Waikato are NZD 41,559 - 62,748/year (subject to change, varies by course). This is a significant cost, so careful financial planning is recommended.
You’ll also need to meet English language requirements (for many programs, IELTS 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5).
