GRADING SYSTEM

In New Zealand your academic performance is measured in terms of “grades” and “grade point average” (GPA). The educational programs are first graded in percentages and then converted into grades.

The grading system and GPA have variations that must be understood by international students. Even if two students submit same GPA but are from different Universities, then their target University may mark their scores differently due to the difference in academic excellence of their previous schools.

ACADEMIC YEAR

In almost all the Universities, the academic calendar begins in February and July.

But ITPs and Private Institutes may have different Intakes for different courses. Practically there is an intake every month in some or the other institution resulting in recruitment throughout the year.
