University life in New Zealand For many students, studying in New Zealand is good, but in the face of strange environment, it is inevitable to panic. So what is university life like in New Zealand? From study, diet, travel, shopping, medical care, insurance and so on. New Zealand follows the British education system in learning and its education quality is high. In terms of travel, New Zealand's public transportation is relatively developed and the price is relatively cheap, but if it is far from the school, you might as well buy a car.

University life in New Zealand

As a Commonwealth country, New Zealand follows the British education system. Because it is located in the southern hemisphere, it has formed a unique and rigorous system on the basis of years of development. In New Zealand, higher education institutions can be divided into research institutes and polytechnics. Research universities pay attention to the cultivation of overall research and analysis ability, while institutes of technology pay more attention to the cultivation of professional skills. Different from the traditional technical schools, New Zealand Institute of Technology is famous for its rigorous and systematic education system, which makes New Zealand graduates have broad employment prospects and high employment rate.

Students study here and make full use of the educational resources provided by the school, especially the library resources. Every school library is equipped with computers and the Internet, which is convenient for students to query information. Making full use of books and electronic resources in the library can save a lot of books.

New Zealand diet

If you want to save some living expenses, you can choose to buy food during the discount period. Generally, when supermarkets in New Zealand are closed, meat will be 20% to 10% off. Generally foreigners don't like the internal organs of animals, such as chicken kidney and chicken liver, so sometimes buying internal organs is more cost-effective than buying beef and mutton chops. Usually some seasonal vegetables and fruits (such as kiwi fruit rich in New Zealand) are much cheaper.

New Zealand tourism

Public transportation in New Zealand is relatively developed and cheap. If you live far from school and your own economic conditions permit, I suggest you buy a car (of course, you have to be an adult), because generally speaking, driving may be cheaper than taking a bus. The cost of buying a used car in New Zealand is actually not too expensive, and there are also choices of styles and prices. Parking in the suburbs of New Zealand is generally free, and parking fees are charged only when parking in the city center. Parking in places like shopping malls and schools is free.

Shopping in New Zealand

Shopping centers in New Zealand will offer promotions and discounts on Christmas, New Year's Day, Easter and other major festivals. The discount is very low, so it is more cost-effective to buy things in these festivals. In addition, there will be large discount shopping malls in some districts of New Zealand, such as DressSmart Shopping Mall in Auckland, which specializes in selling broken codes of some brands. The quality is guaranteed and the price satisfies the international students.

New Zealand health care and insurance

Universities in New Zealand require international students to buy medical insurance and travel insurance before entering school, and the cost is about S $400 per year. In this way, if an international student falls ill or has an accident while studying in New Zealand, the insurance company can bear the corresponding expenses and losses. Medical insurance coverage, New Zealand University, is still limited. If international students need to see a dentist in New Zealand, they are not in medical insurance coverage. However, it costs a lot of money to see a dentist in New Zealand. It is suggested that foreign students must solve their dental problems before going to New Zealand to avoid unnecessary expenses.
