When is the intake period for admission, and can I consider applying for the 2026 or 2027 intake in New Zealand?

Yes, you can apply for the 2027 intake in New Zealand. The main intake is in February (Semester 1), which is the most popular and offers the widest range of courses. There is also a July (Semester 2) intake, but with fewer program options.
For the February 2027 intake, application deadlines typically fall between October and December 2026, depending on the university. As of July 24, 2026, you still have time to prepare your application.
