Frequently asked questions
Can I work on a Student Visa?
Yes, Students are allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during the term and up to 40 hours per week during term breaks. This is allowed because NSLS is a Category 1 provider.
What are the Benefits of Studying in a Category 1 School?
1. Student Visa Work Rights: If students study with us for 14 weeks or longer, their student visa will automatically allow them to get a part-time job during term and to get a full-time job during the holiday period.
What is Fees Free Tertiary Education?
New Zealand students will be able to chase their dreams fees-free from January 2018 thanks to the New Zealand Government’s new tertiary education policy.
North Shore Language School is eligible to offer the first year of tertiary study to New Zealand students free of charge.
This is the first step in the government’s stated intent to extend this policy to two years of fees-free study by 2021 and three years by 2024
