My Exchange at Korea University I’ve known about the 360 International Exchange programme since I started studying at UoA, and it was always something I knew I wanted to do at some point during my degree. So, in 2023, I decided that Semester One 2024 was finally going to be the time for me to…Continue Reading Angela (Sem 1, 2024)

My Exchange at Korea University I have known I wanted to do a semester abroad since high school, so it was actually one of the reasons I chose to come to UoA in the first place. I am happy to say it was worth it! I had a fantastic time studying at Korea University. It…Continue Reading Zanoor (Sem 1, 2024)
Aaron (Sem 1, 2024)
My Exchange at The Seoul National University I found about the exchange programme a long time before I finished high school, because I knew I wanted to go on exchange during my time in uni. I did some searching online and found out about UoA’s 360 International organisation and programme and it was actually a…Continue Reading Aaron (Sem 1, 2024)
James (Sem 1, 2024)
My Exchange at Seoul National University I found out about the 360 exchange program by coincidence as I looked through the opportunities offered by the university on a whim one day, and I’m really glad that I stumbled upon the program. My first impression upon arrival was definitely not the most pleasant; my airline lost…Continue Reading James (Sem 1, 2024)
Julie (Sem 1, 2024)
My Exchange at Korea University Ever since high school, I had dreamt of going to a university outside of New Zealand. While becoming an international student was one choice, I was not sure if 3-4 years of staying overseas without my family and friends from home was a lifestyle that would suit me. In my…Continue Reading Julie (Sem 1, 2024)

My Exchange at Seoul National University My name is Gina, and I am completing my 360 international exchange program at Seoul National University (SNU) in Seoul, South Korea.

My Exchange at Seoul National University Kia ora! Venturing from the University of Auckland to the bustling city of Seoul for an exchange semester at Seoul National University (SNU) was an eye-opener and a half. I stumbled upon this golden opportunity through the uni’s website, fueled by a keen interest to broaden my horizons abroad….Continue Reading Joey (Sem 2, 2023)
Zoe (Sem 2, 2023)
My Exchange at Yonsei University I first arrived in Seoul at night after a 12-hour flight. Being naturally inept with directions and tired after a long-haul flight, it took me a long while to find the train to my accommodation, despite having visited Korea before. I probably wouldn’t have made it to my accommodation had…Continue Reading Zoe (Sem 2, 2023)
Sunjae (Sem 2, 2023)
My Exchange at Sung Kyun Kwan University I found out about the 360 International exchange programme through a poster located on campus somewhere. Since I had already been to Korea many times before, my first impressions of arriving at my host country was not too impressionable, however getting to my host university’s accomodation was exhilerating….Continue Reading Sunjae (Sem 2, 2023)
Seoyun (Sem 1 + Sem 2, 2023)
My Exchange at Seoul National University Before going to my exchange, especially in Korea, I think having a small meet-up with past exchange students would be nice. It could help them share their stories and interact with other UoA students to become close. It was quite difficult to ask for advice when I first arrived…Continue Reading Seoyun (Sem 1 + Sem 2, 2023)
