What You Need to Get In
- A relevant bachelor's in engineering, computer science, or physics with around a 65 to 70 percent average.
- An IELTS Academic score of 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0.
- Graduating from any of these Level 9 programs qualifies you for a 3 year Post Study Work Visa.
My Advice
If budget is your biggest constraint, look closely at Massey or AIS first since they sit well below the other options while still qualifying you for the same 3 year work visa. Tell me your undergraduate background and target intake and I can help you shortlist the best fit.
