IMMIGRATION
Full details of visa and permit requirements, advice on rights to employment in New Zealand while studying, and reporting requirements are available through the New Zealand Immigration Service, and can be viewed on their website at http://www.immigration.govt.nz

INSURANCE

HEALTH AND TRAVEL INSURANCE
Most students are not entitled to publicly funded health services while in New Zealand unless they are:

  • A resident or citizen of Australia; or
  • A national of the United Kingdom in New Zealand; or
  • The holder of a temporary permit that is valid for two years or more.

If you do not belong to one of these special categories and you receive medical treatment during your visit, you will be liable for the full costs of that treatment. We strongly recommend that you have insurance that will cover the cost of medical treatment in New Zealand for the duration of your stay in New Zealand. We also strongly recommend that you obtain insurance to cover your travel to and from New Zealand.

The school recommends that all students make their own arrangements for travel, medical and other insurance requirements during their stay in New Zealand. Medical expenses are high and the school can not be held liable for any situation where students are having to cover their own expenses for medical, loss of property or liability of any kind.

The school can arrange insurance for students with Southern Cross Healthcare or other insurers. Please indicate YES on the school registration form if you want us to arrange Medical Insurance. The fee will be

included in your invoice. Please note that we can not confirm that your insurance is arranged until you have SIGNED and COMPLETED in full the insurers application form, and payment has been made in full. Please go to the Pre-departure information section to download an application form.
