A great experience!

The experiences I've had so far in Wellington have been great. I have been pleasantly surprised by how well taken care of I feel from the university and the "package" that it offers for exchange and study abroad students. The insurance that VUW recommends has already saved my bacon once!

VUW is quite lovely, although it's been difficult for me to get to know my kiwi classmates. I suppose that's just how it is, most people you will get to know well will probably be other international students. Make sure you join one or more of the university's many awesome clubs though, you will meet people and have a lot of fun at the same time.
