Julia (Sem 2, 2023)

My Exchange at McGill University I found out about the possibility of exchange from a friend, who also went to McGill University the semester prior to me. The process to make the exchange happen was a very complicated and difficult process but ended up being worth it in the end. The Canadian semester started much…Continue Reading Julia (Sem 2, 2023)

Mikaela (Sem 1, 2023)

My Exchange at Simon Fraser University My exchange was amazing in every way. The best decision I made was to go with a friend from home. This meant that neither of us ever got homesick, and every single thing throughout the exchange, from the pre-departure admin prep, to initial arrival overseas, to the return back…Continue Reading Mikaela (Sem 1, 2023)

Mack (Sem 1, 2023)

My Exchange at The University of British Columbia When I first arrived in Canada I was lucky enough to be greeted by an old friend of my family which made the first day a lot easier. I hadn’t seen who I now call my uncle Bruce since I was 2 years old but I decided…Continue Reading Mack (Sem 1, 2023)

Johanne (Sem 1, 2023)

My Exchange at The University of British Columbia I found out about 360 International through my university. The accommodation process for my host uni was somewhat difficult as right before leaving, we were told that the on-campus accommodation was full and we had to find housing ourselves. This was very difficult especially in Vancouver where…Continue Reading Johanne (Sem 1, 2023)

Nilotri (Sem 1, 2023)

My Exchange at McGill University I went on exchange to McGill University in Montreal, Canada in their Winter semester! Although I am studying a Commerce/Global Studies conjoint, I chose to study four Commerce courses at McGill, which meant that I was doing all my classes at the Desautels Faculty of Management! I did two stage…Continue Reading Nilotri (Sem 1, 2023)

Olivia (Sem 2, 2022 + Sem 1, 2023)

My Exchange at McGill University I had always planned to study overseas, so an exchange was a no-brainer. I had planned my whole degree around it, and after a few delays (Covid-19), I finally got the green light, and I was ecstatic.  I learned about the 360 International Exchange Program by researching Auckland University’s overseas…Continue Reading Olivia (Sem 2, 2022 + Sem 1, 2023)

Nakita (Sem 2, 2022)

My Exchange at The University of British Columbia I missed orientation, but from what I heard, it was like UoA O-week on steroids. There were the usual culprits; introductory lectures, beach BBQs, and club stalls. My first impression of UBC came on the first day of classes. Everything was big. Buildings, towers, clocks, parks, fountains,…Continue Reading Nakita (Sem 2, 2022)

Fletcher (Sem 2, 2022)

My Exchange at McGill University I had heard about the exchange through the University of Auckland, and my family recommended I went on the exchange. Despite my reluctance to go on exchange at the beginning, I am extremely happy I did it looking back. When I first arrived I was missing my parents and already…Continue Reading Fletcher (Sem 2, 2022)

Ben (Sem 2, 2022)

My Exchange at The University of Toronto I had wanted to go on exchange for a few years and was fortunate enough to get the opportunity this past semester. After arriving in Toronto, I was initially struck by its size and the character of the city. I could walk endlessly in any direction and be…Continue Reading Ben (Sem 2, 2022)

Angus (Sem 2, 2022)

My Exchange at Queen’s University On the First of September 2022, I landed in Toronto and took the train to Kingston, beginning my four-month journey at Queen’s University. Canada is an incredible country with magnificent landscapes and friendly people, and Kingston and Queen’s University are very student-oriented with students making up a quarter of the…Continue Reading Angus (Sem 2, 2022)
