Which country and course would be best for me considering my budget and chances in Australia/New Zealand for a Master's?
Australia is likely the better fit for your profile and budget, given your four-year Agriculture degree (7.6 CGPA) and IELTS 6.5. You meet the typical entry requirements for Master's programs in both Australia and New Zealand, but Australia offers more program options and flexibility.
- Australia: Wider range of Agriculture Master's programs, typical tuition fees around AUD 32,500 - 33,856/year, and average living costs about AUD 21,041/year (subject to change).
- New Zealand: Fewer program options, tuition fees range from NZD 30,000 - 51,180/year, and living costs about NZD 15,000 - 20,000/year (subject to change).
Both countries align with your qualifications, but Australia's broader offerings could increase your chances of admission and finding a program within your budget.
