What is the impact of having five backlogs during my degree on my eligibility for study abroad in New Zealand?

It depends. Having five backlogs in your Computer Technology degree can affect your eligibility, but it usually does not disqualify you from studying abroad.

- New Zealand universities are generally more flexible and may accept students with up to 15 backlogs, especially if your overall academic profile is strong.
- You must clear all backlogs before applying. Most universities require a backlog certificate showing cleared subjects and attempts.
- Strong academic performance in your final semesters, a solid PTE score, and a well-written Statement of Purpose (SOP) can help strengthen your application.
