The cost of studying MS in Canada is more expensive than in NZ. You should choose Canada to pursue MS if you want access to top-ranked universities, better post-graduation work options, and global career opportunities. Choose NZ if you prefer a more affordable option with a peaceful lifestyle. Also, the admission process is less competitive. New Zealand's universities typically offer smaller class sizes compared to larger Canadian institutions.

Since it is within the normal range of English proficiency requirements for many undergraduate and Diploma programs, a TOEFL score of 85 is generally regarded as suitable for the majority of programs at the Queens Academic Group of New Zealand. A TOEFL score between 60 and 90 is frequently enough for admission to many New Zealand colleges, while the precise requirements can change based on the course and academic level. Although you should be able to enrol in a variety of courses with a score of 85, it's wise to confirm the English language requirements of the particular program.
