About Capital Education Consultants
Capital Education Consultants is Wellington's specialist education advisory service for international students. Located near the Lambton Quay precinct, they focus on the capital's tertiary institutions — Victoria University of Wellington (Te Herenga Waka), Massey University Wellington, and Wellington Institute of Technology (Weltec/Whitireia).Wellington's international student community differs from Auckland's: it skews toward postgraduate and research students, government-funded students, and those in humanities, law, and policy disciplines. Capital Education's team is calibrated to this audience — they are comfortable advising on CoE renewals for doctoral candidates, supporting students on government scholarships, and navigating the specific administrative structures of Wellington's institutions.They also maintain knowledge of Wellington-region employment opportunities relevant to post-study work visa holders — useful for students who want to remain in the capital after graduation.
Our research

How Capital Education Consultants get paid
Capital Education Consultants does not charge students a placement fee. Like most education agents, it is paid a commission by the universities it places students into. That does not make its advice bad — but the agent is paid by the institution, not by you, so it has more financial reason to recommend a partner university than a non-partner one. Ask which universities it represents, and whether your shortlist is on that list.
