Key dates for applying for admission to study a qualification at Massey.

The first step when applying to study with us is to apply for admission into a qualification. Once you've been accepted you can apply for enrolment in the courses that make up your qualification.

We recommend you apply as early as you can. In some cases it can take us a few weeks to assess applications. Applying early doesn't commit you to enrolling in courses within your qualification – but if you leave it too late, you might not have enough time to enrol in courses or the courses may be full.

For new international students fully completing your admission application by the due date will ensure you have enough time to accept your Offer of Place, pay your fees, select your courses and be settled and ready to commence your study by the start of the semester. Most of the applicants who apply by the due date will be able to be admitted to their chosen qualification. Applications will be continue to be accepted after the due date if spaces are available.

For domestic and returning international students if the due date has passed, apply for the next intake or year.
