Tips: Scholarships are tough to get, there aren't enough scholarships for international students. There is a cultural shift for sure. UoA is focused on research so there's a lot of self-study involved compared to the Indian education system. Plus New Zealand has strong cultural roots so good to know about it a little beforehand. The university was good, good course but highly-priced.

Likes (Public transportation): Good connection to university via buses and bike. Plus there's plenty of accommodation around the university so it's east to travel. Public transport isn't the cheapest, students get some discount though. It's easier to purchase your own bike or scooter for better travel experience.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Good chances of getting a permanent residence after your Masters if you land a full-time job. The work visa after Master is for 3 years so most students apply for PR in that time frame. I'd like to permanently immigrate because of the work culture. The pay scale can be better.

Master of Business Analytics - Batch of 2024

4.2

Intense but rewarding. Looking forward to applying what I’ve learned in real life

Tips: I’ve done undergrad in the UK and now master's in New Zealand. I’m pretty comfortable with the cultural shift but one does tend to feel when you shift to a new place. Becomes better eventually. No scholarships are availed. Pretty satisfied, the course is intense but manageable

Likes (Indian Food): All kinds of restaurants/cuisines are available since there is a large Asian diaspora here. Prices range from 15-20 for an average-sized meal. Cooking myself is the best option as it economically better. Eating outside is not sustainable after a point.

Dislikes (Internships): There are a lot of resources/career support from the university regarding this. A lot of career fairs are there as well. There are relevant internships for my programs however since I have work ex, I’m not looking for that but instead, graduate roles can be a good starting point.
