Studying OT in NZ
Hi everyone,
I'm looking into the options of studying OT abroad, most likely in Dunedin as I don't want to live in Auckland.
The course fees for overseas students are very high. I was just wondering if anyone knew about financing overseas study? Can I get a student loan? Or similar?
Our overall goal is to live in NZ and my husband is job hunting to enable us to do so.
Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.
