New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) $25 administration fee
The hook-on fee of $25 is a 1-off payment that enables the you to hook-on to the national qualifications framework. AUT is responsible for reporting monthly to NZQA about fees, unit standard credits and exam results.
After you've paid your hook-on fee to AUT

- We will report your unit standard credits to NZQA
- NZQA will send you a record of learning that shows what credits you have completed towards your final qualification.
Not all modules or programmes have unit standards. Your programme administrator or faculty will be able to tell you if your programme of study has unit standard credits.
Exam fees for some national courses in business and engineering
AUT University reports on the New Zealand Diploma in Business and New Zealand Certificate in Engineering (electro technology) and trades/industry examinations to the NZQA. There are mid-year and end-of-year examinations and fees must be paid in full so that the entries for exams can be forwarded to NZQA at certain times of the year.
If the entries are not paid and not sent then students incur penalties for late payment. AUT also sends exam results to NZQA which are recorded and sent out to students. These results are sent at varying times of the year.
