Auckland University of Technology (AUT) Reviews

AUT is a great place to study abroad. Auckland is an awesome city and you should definitely consider travelling all around New Zealand because there is so much to see! While you are at it you should explore Australia, Fiji, Thailand and any other countries in this part of the world! I have had so many amazing opportunities while I have been abroad at AUT and I have had absolutely no problems at all. The staff is super helpful and will help you sort out any problems you may have with your classes. The class setup and assignments make it very easy for you to travel during your semester and still stay on top of your schoolwork.

Most important is that the AUT is very supportive of exchange students. The help students do well in there classes but also encourage students to travel and see New Zealand. They are also very concerned with having all the international students to get together and create bonds. This was very successful, i have made so many close friends that i would consider them all my New Zealand family. This also helped with coping with being so far away from home. The classes here are different enough from my home uni that I gained so much knowledge that i will be able to apply later in life as well as my schooling back home. I had a wonderful experience and will be very sad for it to end.

Coming to New Zealand was a long journey from Canada although, I am glad to say that I can call this place my home. The country is incredibly beautiful, weekends were always spent exploring the islands. Safe to say you couldn't get bored here because there is always something to go see!

I highly suggest anyone coming to study in Auckland explore the South Island as it is a great reflection of what New Zealand is all about. Lots of hikes, two lane roads that weave through mountains and the most beautiful scenic sites surrounding you everywhere you go!

I really enjoyed all of my art & design classes at AUT. The professors were really approachable and helpful with any questions or inquires about the projects. The AUT city campus is beautiful and really close to the centre of Auckland, parks, the residence and much more.

Living on residence was extremely fun because it was conveniently close to the campus and other international students. The downfall were the loud sounds from cars/buses from the main street adjacent to the building and the occasional loud people coming home from a night out. Other then that, I had a great time living on residence for the first time!

I've also met a lot of amazing people along the way, the majority all being international students who I can call my friends. This experience was incredible to do with them and definitely one I will not forget.

I am really happy that I was able to live and study in New Zealand. Overall, Auckland is a very walkable city and AUT was a great place to spend my exchange semester. Time fly by fast and if I could, I would do the whole experience all over again!

AUT has a great location, well designed facilities, and nice staff. My hospitality classes have been pretty small and I feel like I am able to get to know people that are in my classes. People are very nice and always trying to learn more about you.

I think that it would have been nice to live on campus to see what life here is really like. The city campus and classes here remind me of studying back at home.

This exchange in New Zealand is doubtlessly one of the best experiences of my life! You're able to get in touch with many internationals students here, all willing like you to discover one of the most beautiful places on Earth! Studying in AUT has also been really nice, thanks to the commitment of its staff and academic teams who are always willing to help you. Auckland is an awesome place to be and I would definitely advise everyone to pass by!

AUT is a beautiful school centrally located in a beautiful city. Auckland is a great base for your time in New Zealand because it is so easy to access transportation out of the city form here. Definitely loved my semesters here in NZ

Studying in New Zealand has been an amazing experience. It has made me be more independent and accountable for myself, while also giving me the amazing opportunity to travel around this beautiful country with friends from around the world.

When I think about how my study abroad semester is at AUT it's just awesome! Firstly, the university is pretty good and the professors are super nice and are really willing to interact with the students. Besides this, the faculty is pretty modern. The variety in papers and degrees is huge and that they have different campus all around Auckland is nice because you see a lot of the town.
New Zealand is beautiful and I have never seen a more beautiful landscape before in my life. You have so many opportunities to travel and just experience the Maori culture.

I could recommend to all people, go to AKL and study at AUT. Study, travel and just enjoy your time here!

Best decision ever :-).

You'll get in touch with people from all over the world, which is great. I really enjoyed that!
Although Auckland itself gets boring after a couple of weeks, it is surrounded by some awesome landscapes. Rent a car and discover the country!

My time in New Zealand has been amazing. If you want to see the most beautiful landscape of the world, then you have to go to New Zealand.
From Auckland are Weekend trips like Rotorua, Hobbiton, Tongariro Crossing, Bay of Island or beautiful beaches easy to reach.
Moreover, you're with the plane within one hour on the south island.
Auckland itself, where you reach Bars, Restaurants, Clubs, Harbour etc. by foot.

The AUT City Campus is modern and restaurants as kebap or asian food are placed on campus.The courses are not demanding, but you have to spend a lot of time in assignments and Presentations.

All in all i would recommend studying at AUT, such as travel around the North- and South Island.

I promise you, you'll have one of the best experiences of your life.
