India has emerged as the second largest source country after China for international students in New Zealand during 2010-11, according to official figures.
While student visa applications from traditional markets like China, South Korea, South Africa, Taiwan and Britain have declined in the past years, Indian students continue flocking to New Zealand for higher education.
The number of Indian students approved to study has increased steadily over the past five years, from around 3,700 fee-paying students in 2005-06 to over 12,000 in 2010-11, according to statistics released by Immigration New Zealand (INZ).
Since 2007-08, India has been New Zealand's third largest source country after China and South Korea.
As many as 9,141 student visa applications have been approved from July 2009 to February 2011, reported INZ statistics.
