The University of Waikato College requires an initial deposit for international students to secure their place in a program. For most foundation and diploma programs, the deposit is NZD $3,000. This amount is deducted from the total tuition fees.
Payment must be made after receiving an offer letter and before the issuance of a Confirmation of Enrollment (CoE). The deposit is non-refundable if the student fails to obtain a visa or withdraws after enrollment. Specific programs may have different requirements, so applicants should verify details with the college admissions office.
