Fees Free

Learners beginning study for the first time in 2025 may be eligible for Fees Free which covers fees for the final year of tertiary study in the first qualification you complete after 1 January 2025, up to $12,000 including GST.

Fees Free will only cover the final year of one qualification. If you don’t use the $12,000 entitlement for the final year of your first qualification, you won’t be able to access Fees Free again for a second qualification.

You will be able to confirm your eligibility and claim your Fees Free entitlement after you complete your qualification using the myIR portal which will be available to use from early 2026. Until then, you don’t need to do anything.

Make sure you organise payment of your fees when you enrol. You may wish to apply to StudyLink for a student loan to help cover your fees. For further information, visit www.feesfree.govt.nz

StudyLink
