一、新西蘭有哪些頂尖大學(xué)?
here are eight universities in New Zealand, all of which feature in the QS World University Rankings? 2018, a particularly impressive feat when you consider the country’s population is only around 4.7 million. In addition, New Zealand's higher education system also includes 18 institutes of technology and polytechnics, which offer vocational courses of varying lengths and levels, focusing on practical skills and hands-on experience.
2018年QS世界大學(xué)排行榜中新西蘭一共有八所大學(xué)進(jìn)入排行榜，這真的是一個(gè)特別令人印象深刻的壯舉，特別是當(dāng)你考慮該國(guó)的人口只有470萬(wàn)左右。此外，新西蘭的高等教育系統(tǒng)還包括18個(gè)理工學(xué)院和理工學(xué)院，提供不同長(zhǎng)度和水平的職業(yè)課程，注重實(shí)踐技能和實(shí)踐經(jīng)驗(yàn)。新西蘭的資歷架構(gòu)是新西蘭高等教育體系的核心，確保新西蘭的教學(xué)質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)能夠得以維持。許多學(xué)生很高興知道新西蘭的班級(jí)規(guī)模很小，這意味著你可以期待良好的家教和學(xué)生互動(dòng)。2016年QS世界高等教育體系強(qiáng)度排名世界排名第16位。那么跟著出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)來(lái)一起閱讀更多關(guān)于新西蘭排名前五的大學(xué):

1.奧克蘭Auckland
On the east coast of North Island, Auckland is New Zealand’s largest city and home to its highest-ranking university, the University of Auckland. Auckland is known for its especially multicultural community, and (though this is true of the whole country) for the wide range of high-adrenaline activities available in and around the city. Jet-skiing, canyoning, surfing, abseiling, bungee-jumping, snowboarding, climbing, diving – you get the idea. Or, of course, you can just relax on the beach instead.Other universities in Auckland include Auckland University of Technology and several institutes of technology and polytechnics, while Massey University’s Albany campus is less than 20km north of the city center. The city itself is ranked 28th in the 2017 edition of the QS Best Student Cities index.
在北島的東海岸，奧克蘭是新西蘭最大的城市，也是其排名最高的大學(xué)，奧克蘭大學(xué)的所在地。奧克蘭以其特別多文化的社區(qū)而聞名，而且(盡管這是整個(gè)國(guó)家的真實(shí)情況)，因?yàn)樵诔鞘泻椭苓叺貐^(qū)有廣泛的高腎上腺素的活動(dòng)?；?、峽谷、沖浪、潛水、蹦極、滑雪板、攀巖、潛水——你明白了。或者，當(dāng)然，你可以在海灘上放松一下。奧克蘭的其他大學(xué)包括奧克蘭理工大學(xué)和幾所理工學(xué)院和理工學(xué)院，而梅西大學(xué)的奧爾巴尼校區(qū)在市中心以北不到20公里。該城市本身在2017年QS最佳學(xué)生城市指數(shù)中排名第28位。
2.惠靈頓Wellington
On the south coast of North Island, Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. It’s believed by some to be more aesthetically attractive than rival Auckland (we’ll let you make up your own mind), and offers a good selection of culture, cuisine and nightlife within a relatively compact area. Of course, stunning natural scenery is never far away in New Zealand – here, you’ll find beaches, forests, islands, hills and vineyards all within easy reach.Universities in Wellington include Victoria University of Wellington and one of Massey University’s three campuses, as well as several institutes of technology and polytechnics. The University of Otago has a medical school here, and the New Zealand School of Music (run jointly by Victoria University of Wellington and Massey University) is also based in Wellington.
在北島的南海岸，惠靈頓是新西蘭的首都。有些人認(rèn)為它比競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手奧克蘭更具吸引力(我們會(huì)讓你自己做決定)，并在一個(gè)相對(duì)緊湊的區(qū)域內(nèi)提供良好的文化、美食和夜生活。當(dāng)然，新西蘭的自然風(fēng)光永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)遙遠(yuǎn)。在這里，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)海灘、森林、島嶼、山丘和葡萄園都觸手可及?；蒽`頓的大學(xué)包括惠靈頓維多利亞大學(xué)和梅西大學(xué)的三個(gè)校區(qū)以及幾所理工學(xué)院和理工學(xué)院。奧塔哥大學(xué)在這里有一所醫(yī)學(xué)院，新西蘭音樂(lè)學(xué)院(由惠靈頓大學(xué)和梅西大學(xué)聯(lián)合辦學(xué))也位于惠靈頓。
3.克賴斯特徹奇Christchurch
Located on the east coast of South Island, Christchurch is the largest city on the island and the third most-populous urban area in New Zealand. In recent years, Christchurch has undergone major redevelopment projects, following damage from earthquakes in 2010 and 2011, and the general consensus seems to be that it’s just as lively as before the natural disasters struck. Marketing itself as the Garden City, Christchurch prides itself on its large areas of public parkland and picturesque river banks, as well as its thriving arts and cultural scene.
克賴斯特徹奇位于南島的東海岸，是島上最大的城市，也是新西蘭人口第三大的城市地區(qū)。近年來(lái)，克萊斯特徹奇在2010年和2011年遭受地震的破壞后，經(jīng)歷了重大的重建項(xiàng)目，而普遍的共識(shí)似乎是，它與自然災(zāi)害發(fā)生前一樣充滿活力。作為花園城市，克賴斯特徹奇以其廣闊的公共綠地和風(fēng)景如畫的河岸以及蓬勃發(fā)展的藝術(shù)和文化場(chǎng)景而自豪。因?yàn)檫@是新西蘭，你也會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)通常的戶外活動(dòng)選擇?？速囁固貜仄娴拇髮W(xué)包括坎特伯雷大學(xué)(新西蘭第三大的大學(xué))和林肯大學(xué)以及一些專科學(xué)院，其中很多都是私立的?？速囁固貜仄婺壳霸谧罴褜W(xué)生城市指數(shù)中排名第74位。
4.達(dá)尼丁Dunedin
The second-largest city on the South Island, Dunedin is the main city in the Otago region. Again on the east coast of the island, Dunedin is about 300km (190 miles) south of Christchurch. Formerly New Zealand’s largest city (until around 1900), Dunedin retains a leading position in the country’s culture, and is a major student hub, with students accounting for a significant proportion of its community. Dunedin is home to New Zealand’s second highest-ranked and oldest university, the University of Otago.
位于南島的第二大城市，Dunedin是奧塔哥地區(qū)的主要城市。再一次在該島的東海岸，在克賴斯特徹奇以南約300公里(190英里)。作為新西蘭最大的城市(直到1900年左右)，Dunedin在這個(gè)國(guó)家的文化中保持著領(lǐng)先地位，并且是一個(gè)主要的學(xué)生中心，學(xué)生在其社區(qū)中占有相當(dāng)大的比例。Dunedin是新西蘭排名第二、最古老的大學(xué)——奧塔哥大學(xué)的所在地。
三、申請(qǐng)和簽證等相關(guān)事宜
1.申請(qǐng)要求
The academic year for higher education in New Zealand runs from March to November. However, some courses may also allow students to start in July. Most universities in New Zealand have just two terms (semesters), with the exception of Victoria University of Wellington, which has three terms (trimesters). As well as having completed secondary level qualifications recognized by New Zealand’s universities, applicants also need to prove English language proficiency, usually by taking the IELTS or TOEFL exams.
新西蘭的高等教育學(xué)年從3月持續(xù)到11月。然而，一些課程也允許學(xué)生在7月份開始上課。新西蘭的大多數(shù)大學(xué)只有兩個(gè)學(xué)，除了惠靈頓維多利亞大學(xué)，它有三個(gè)學(xué)期(三個(gè)學(xué)期)。除了已經(jīng)完成了新西蘭大學(xué)認(rèn)可的中級(jí)資格證書，申請(qǐng)人還需要證明英語(yǔ)水平，通常是參加雅思或托福考試。新西蘭沒有一個(gè)集中的大學(xué)申請(qǐng)服務(wù)，所以學(xué)生們需要在他們感興趣的大學(xué)里單獨(dú)申請(qǐng)，遵循官方大學(xué)網(wǎng)站上列出的步驟。每個(gè)機(jī)構(gòu)都設(shè)定了這個(gè)期限。當(dāng)你接受并支付了你的費(fèi)用后，大學(xué)將會(huì)給你發(fā)送一個(gè)確認(rèn)的地方信，你在申請(qǐng)學(xué)生簽證的時(shí)候需要它。
2.簽證辦理
If you’re planning to study in New Zealand for more than three months, you need to apply for a student visa (for less than three months, a visitor visa is fine). New Zealand student visa requirements include:
Proof of an offer of a place at an approved institution
Evidence of sufficient funds to cover living expenses and a flight back to your home country
Passport and two recent passport-sized photos if you use a paper application form, or one photo if you apply online
Health insurance
For those under 18, a letter guaranteeing suitable accommodation has been arranged
For those over 17, a police certificate of good character
For courses over 12 months, medical certificates, which may include screening for tuberculosis
Visa applications are made via the nearest branch of the New Zealand Immigration organization or online. The application fee varies depending on where you’re applying from, and is 10% cheaper online. You don’t need a visa if you’re from Australia or if your home country has a special agreement with New Zealand.
如果你打算在新西蘭學(xué)習(xí)三個(gè)月以上，你需要申請(qǐng)學(xué)生簽證(不到三個(gè)月，訪客簽證就可以了)。新西蘭學(xué)生簽證要求包括:
在批準(zhǔn)的機(jī)構(gòu)中提供地方的證明。
有足夠的資金來(lái)支付生活費(fèi)用和飛回你的祖國(guó)。
護(hù)照和兩張最近的護(hù)照大小的照片，如果你用一張紙申請(qǐng)表，或者一張照片如果你在網(wǎng)上申請(qǐng)。
健康保險(xiǎn)：
對(duì)于18歲以下的人，已經(jīng)安排了一封保證合適住宿的信。
對(duì)17歲以上的人來(lái)說(shuō)，擁有好的品行。
對(duì)于超過(guò)12個(gè)月的課程，醫(yī)學(xué)證書，可能包括對(duì)結(jié)核病的篩查。
簽證申請(qǐng)是通過(guò)最近的新西蘭移民組織或網(wǎng)絡(luò)的分支。申請(qǐng)費(fèi)因你申請(qǐng)的地點(diǎn)而異，在網(wǎng)上便宜10%。如果你來(lái)自澳大利亞或者你的祖國(guó)與新西蘭有特別的協(xié)議，你不需要簽證。
3.費(fèi)用
Tuition fees in New Zealand vary depending both on the institution and the subject. The organization Universities New Zealand provides PDF files with indicative fee estimations for each of the eight main universities each year.To give you an example, at the University of Auckland the annual tuition fees for international undergraduate students start at NZ$27,592 (~US$19,460) for most Bachelor of Arts (BA) courses, up to NZ$72,896 (~US$51,420) for medicine degrees beyond the first year. For postgraduate degrees at the University of Auckland, tuition fees for international students start at NZ$32,392 (~US$22,850) and reach NZ$46,787 (~US$33,010) per year.
As in any country, some cities are more affordable than others. Auckland and Wellington are the most expensive cities to live in New Zealand, although they are both nonetheless ranked as more affordable than cities such as New York and London in Mercer’s Cost of Living Survey. You can expect to spend around NZ$150-300 (~US$106-212) on rent and NZ$80-100 (~US$57-71) on groceries per week in Auckland.The main accommodation options are the halls of residence at your university, private rental, and homestays, in which you’d live with a local family and have your meals included in the rent. A homestay can be a good way to practise speaking English (if it’s not your first language) and experience the local culture and way of life.
新西蘭的學(xué)費(fèi)根據(jù)學(xué)校和科目的不同而不同。新西蘭的聯(lián)合國(guó)大學(xué)每年為8所主要大學(xué)提供PDF文件，并提供指示性費(fèi)用估計(jì)。舉個(gè)例子，在奧克蘭大學(xué)，國(guó)際本科學(xué)生每年的學(xué)費(fèi)為27,592新西蘭元(約合19,460美元)，大多數(shù)文科學(xué)士學(xué)位課程的學(xué)費(fèi)為72,896新西蘭元(合51,420美元)。奧克蘭大學(xué)的研究生學(xué)位，國(guó)際學(xué)生的每年的學(xué)費(fèi)從32,392新西蘭元(約22,850美元)到46,787(約33,010美元)不等。根據(jù)大學(xué)的不同，你可能也需要支付學(xué)生服務(wù)的費(fèi)用。
新西蘭的生活成本：
新西蘭的生活成本比美國(guó)和英國(guó)等國(guó)要便宜一些，但比中國(guó)或印度等國(guó)家要貴得多。當(dāng)你申請(qǐng)學(xué)生簽證時(shí)，你需要證明你每年至少有1.5萬(wàn)新西蘭元的生活費(fèi)，除了支付學(xué)費(fèi)和返程機(jī)票。然而，建議的生活費(fèi)用預(yù)算是每年 20,000- 25,000新西蘭元($ 14,140- 17,680)，盡管你可能需要根據(jù)你的生活方式和消費(fèi)習(xí)慣做更多的預(yù)算。和其他國(guó)家一樣，有些城市比其他城市更便宜。奧克蘭和惠靈頓是生活在新西蘭最昂貴的城市，盡管它們都比紐約和倫敦等城市的生活成本更貴。在奧克蘭，你可以在每周的房租上花150 - 300新西蘭元約106 - 212美元，在紐約的雜貨上花費(fèi)80 - 100新西蘭元(約57 - 71美元)。主要的住宿選擇是你的大學(xué)宿舍、私人租賃和寄宿家庭，你可以和當(dāng)?shù)氐募胰俗≡谝黄?，并把你的餐點(diǎn)包括在房租里。寄宿家庭可以是練習(xí)說(shuō)英語(yǔ)的好方法(如果你的母語(yǔ)不是英語(yǔ)的話)，并體驗(yàn)當(dāng)?shù)氐奈幕蜕罘绞健?BR> 申請(qǐng)資金的機(jī)會(huì)：
有各種各樣的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金可以支持那些想在新西蘭學(xué)習(xí)的人，包括一些由該國(guó)政府提供的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金。新西蘭教育網(wǎng)站也有一個(gè)搜索工具，你可以搜索與你的國(guó)籍、科目和/或?qū)W習(xí)水平相關(guān)的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金。雖然從兼職學(xué)生的工作中過(guò)多地依賴收入不是一個(gè)好主意，但你的學(xué)生簽證可以讓你在學(xué)期時(shí)間內(nèi)每周工作20小時(shí)，在學(xué)期休息期間全職工作。那些通過(guò)研究或PhD獲得碩士學(xué)位的人，對(duì)于他們能工作的時(shí)間是無(wú)限的。
