Whether you study in Dunedin or Sydney, campuses sit minutes from beaches, mountains, and native forest. Here's what day-to-day life looks like once classes start.
Student associations, clubs, and marae-based cultural programmes make it easy to find your community from day one, wherever you're starting from.
Halls of residence in your first year, then flatting or homestay options from year two — we help you compare costs and locations before you arrive.
Every university runs a free or low-cost student health centre, plus counselling services specifically for international students. In Australia, Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is required for your whole stay.
Discounted student public transport in every city, with most campuses walkable or a short bus ride from student housing.
Eligible student visas allow up to 25 hours a week during term in New Zealand, or 48 hours a fortnight in Australia — we help you understand your rights and find compliant work.
Regular cultural festivals, marae visits in New Zealand, large Indian community events across Australian cities, and international student welcome weeks help you settle in fast.
New Zealand is ranked the world's #2 most peaceful country and Australia sits in the global top 20, with low crime rates and 24/7 campus security.
