At least one of these IDs must have your photograph on it.
AND
For Domestic Students: At least one of these IDs must show proof of NZ Citizenship or Residency (or other evidence which qualifies under the definition for a domestic tertiary student in NZ as applicable). Proof may include a certified copy of one of the following for NZ: passport, citizenship certificate, birth certificate, e-version copy of residency, birth register, etc.

For a list of suitable identification please click here.

To certify your IDs:
• Make a photocopy of each of your IDs.
• Take your photocopies and IDs to whoever is going to certify them- they will need to see the original IDs before they can certify the photocopies of them.
• Your IDs can be certified by a person of standing in the community (e.g. a registered professional, or a pastor or community leader), a JP or the Police.
• Certified copies need to have the name, signature and stamp of the person certifying them and the date. If a stamp is not available, please ensure that the person’s position or job title is also written.

ONE of the following options must be supplied:

• A copy of your official academic transcript or certificate at NZQA Level 7 University Degree or above.

OR

• A letter of support from the manager/ employer at your place of work evidencing at least two years of related work experience.

​​Photographs must be in “.jpg“, “.jpeg” or “.png” format and should be no larger than one megabyte in size, and at least 300px wide by 360px high. Images taken directly from digital cameras are likely to be too large. 

• This photograph will be used on your student ID card. Please ensure this photo is a clear head and shoulder portrait and is in colour. Unlike a passport photograph however we do encourage you to smile!
• If your image is too large, please resize it before uploading. Oversize images will not be processed. There are a number of websites that offer online resizing tools, such as http://www.picresize.com/ which you might consider using if you do not have image resizing software available to you.

The Application Fee is a non-refundable payment for processing an application. Please click here to go to our secure online payment portal. Alternatively, you may pay by cash, EFTPOS or credit card onsite at the BTI reception.
