UoA - where you learn about yourself just as much as you learn the course.
Tips: I have made good friends and have a good work-life balance. In terms of cultural shift, everyone treats everyone with respect, usually, irrespective of gender, race, country, language, or religion. Though sometimes you will come across people who do not assimilate and bring the good/bad accordingly. Depending on what vibes a person wants, they will usually find themselves in it. Also, bring a portable bidet. They only use toilet paper here. That's a struggle most Asians do not think about, but I've seen many complain about it later after arriving here, and then pay a high amount to get one installed where they stay, or are still unable to find a good portable one easily locally. - Know how to drive a car properly. Many jobs will require a full local NZ driver's license, and the best way to get one is to have a full license back home, convert it to an NZ restricted license after clearing a written exam, and then take a driving test to convert it to a full license. - Since there are no cooks, aids, cheap street food, etc. That one gets used to back in India, be as self-reliant as possible so you are good to go from day one. - Try to be as healthy as possible, both physically, emotionally, and mentally. Get all your health checks done back home. Doctors are really expensive here, and sometimes the wait to even SEE one can be quite long depending on your case, especially if you need a specialist. I did not use any scholarships, though some of my friends were recipients of the 'UoA India High Achievers' scholarship, you can look into it if you wish to make use of it and are eligible. Overall, it's quite the journey moving to a new country and making a new social life/career, etc. It's not for everyone, and it's definitely a big financial gamble. Grass always seems greener on the other side. There are pros/cons to everything, decide after your own research.
Likes (Value for money): UoA gives an amazing student life, and the extracurricular opportunities one can explore are truly endless. If one wishes to take up multiple hobbies via clubs or attend career events, all options are available. There is no guaranteed campus placement, but almost every big company comes to the university during events or career fairs. So if a student is proactive, they will get the opportunity to make good industry connections that could come in handy for an internship / part-time/full-time later.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The political landscape of the country changes every few years, and the immigration rules change with it, so permanent settlement is not a straight pathway. There are multiple requirements even after a local degree, such as a median wage (or above) salary in a relevant field with an accredited employer, and some others (best to check their site for the latest rules). The work culture is pretty good. The cost of living is pretty high, but the pay usually can cover it depending on hours and lifestyle. So if one has found their ideal job / social circle, then it will be a good country to settle in, just like any other.

Great experience, but hard work. There is support, and there are lots of opportunities.
Tips: In summary, I am very pleased with both my choice of university and living in New Zealand. There is a wonderful academic environment at the university, while the country itself is simply amazing with its scenery and people who are very friendly. Finally, I can say that I am fairly happy with the chosen course of studies. The reason for this is that I was born and raised in New Zealand and therefore no adjustment process was needed.
Likes (Indian Food): Auckland has a big Indian food scene that fits pretty much any budget, whether you want cheap seats or fine dining. Personally, I'm flexible and am just as happy grabbing food out as I am eating at home. I actually enjoy cooking my own meals, but this can be time-consuming and sometimes a little challenging during busy periods.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The institution has an excellent transportation system that enables it to connect the entire city through buses and trains. But inter-suburb transportation becomes difficult as it requires you to travel from one suburb to another without going through the main stations, which can be lengthy. Generally, students can say that public transport in the university is average when it comes to costs and convenience compared to other countries.

Balanced MEM experience at University of Auckland with strong learning but limited job market.
Tips: MEM at the University of Auckland blends engineering & management, with a strong focus on self-learning, teamwork, and real-world applications. Living in Auckland can be expensive, so financial planning is important. The transition is smooth culturally, more open, and interactive. Good university but small job market. Scholarships ~$5-$10k. Overall, it's a good university with quality education, though the job market is relatively small and competitive.

Very limited opportunities.
Tips: The way of teaching and assessing is different from what we are used to. Have to put some extra effort during the initial phase. There are different scholarships available like the India High Achievers Scholarship and other kinds also. I was awarded the India High Achievers Scholarship which is specifically for students from India and the amount varies depending on the application, from 5000 to 20000.
Likes (Indian Food): There are a lot of restaurants that serve Indian cuisine and prices will vary but you can expect around 25 - 30 NZD each time. I prefer cooking myself which is way cheaper compared to what needs to be spent each time when eating outside. Groceries cost around 60-100 NZD per week.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The current job market is not that good limiting the options for an immigrant student. Networking is very important in acquiring a job in the current market. There are graduate programs offered by various firms that run from 2 to 3 years focusing on graduate students.

The university of filled with talented and friendly professors. The student life was excellent.
Tips: Other than many European countries, New Zealand is very immigrant-friendly. Everyone is minding their own business, and most of the people are really friendly. I haven't experienced any cultural shifts as everyone is easygoing and many people from India were here.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The faculty members are very talented and helpful. They'll allow us special time slots to ask doubts and they'll help us study. Proper sessions are conducted without the need for extra classes. The study materials provided are also of good quality.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There are many companies out here. But it is a different scenario, there are no direct campus placements conducted. There are many job fair, where companies come and introduce themselves to the students. They'll share information and encourage us to apply for the graduate roles.

Learning through and growing.
Tips: My experience has been positive so far. I gave myself a week to explore the area and figure out all the go to spots for essentials, socialising and more. The campus is very global and safe so I would say it is quite student friendly as well. It can get competitive after the first semester so keep upskilling.
