360 points, a four-year degree 480 points, etc.
Most full-time students study eight papers of 10–30

courses with higher points values per paper will study
fewer papers overall.

11Student stories
How dreams are realised
"Because of the differences in the schooling systems of New
Zealand and Bahrain I needed to do a Foundation Studies course
to ensure I was prepared to pursue my tertiary education in this
country," says Bahraini student Mohamed Alansari.
"I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Education,
followed by an honours degree in Education (with first-class
honours), a Master of Arts in Education (also with first-class
honours), and I've now completed a PhD specialisation in the social
psychology of education.
"I am a research fellow at the Faculty of Education and Social
Work at the University of Auckland. As part of my role I give
lectures on educational and social psychology, research methods
and improving outcomes for university students.
"I'm a big dreamer. I see myself in the future taking on a
challenging leadership role that allows me to have a greater
impact on how we teach students and cater to their needs at all
educational levels."
Learning the business of
marketing
Xinpei (Harriet) Zhou came to New Zealand from China when
she was 17.
"I decided to do the University of Auckland Certificate in
Foundation Studies because it provided English study together
with subjects I had never learned at school in China, like
Accounting and Economics. It made me better prepared for the
University of Auckland where I did a Bachelor of Commerce with a
double major in Marketing and International Business.
"The teachers at ACG Pathways were very friendly and one of
them ignited my passion for business studies. The course is good
because it gives students the opportunity to try different subjects
and adapt to New Zealand culture."
Now a successful marketing professional, Harriet runs her own
company specialising in helping New Zealand and Australian
brands excel in China. In 2016, she received the Valuable
Contribution award from the New Zealand Chinese Association
for her work promoting Chinese culture in Nelson.
