New Zealand education agents not all the same
Chose your New Zealand education agent carefully
INZ refused most of the student visa applications from some education agents in India, Vietnam and the Philippines (2017).
New Zealand student visa approval rates
Some agents in India registered a 98% decline rate in their student visa applications while the approval rate is usually around 70% for the countries named above. Not all applications are declined on reasons that could be related to a poor eligibility assessment. In fact, many applicants struggle to prove the source of their maintenance or tuition funds. However, this clearly shows how important it is to chose the right education agent.
Our student visa approval rate is 100% to date
