Will showing work experience help my visa chances despite previous refusals in New Zealand?

Yes, showing your 12 months of work experience can strengthen your New Zealand student visa application, even after previous refusals. Relevant work experience demonstrates your commitment to your chosen field and readiness for your academic program.

However, it's important to clearly address the reasons for your earlier refusals. Make sure your new application explains these issues and includes any additional supporting documents to resolve past concerns. This can improve your application's credibility and your chances of approval.

If you need support with your reapplication, please contact your LeapScholar counsellor.
