My Exchange at The University of Edinburgh I loved every second of my semester abroad exchange to the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. When I first arrived, I was struck by how cloudy it was!

My Exchange at University College London I originally chose London as my exchange destination as a way to assess whether I wanted to live there after I graduated University.  Studying in London is incredibly unique due to the high proportion of international students.

Anya (Sem 2, 2023)

My Exchange at The University of Edinburgh I was encouraged to do an exchange through the Global Studies programme, where exchanges are highly encouraged. I decided on Edinburgh mostly because it was an English speaking country and I was learning Māori as part of my degree and didn’t want to take another language on. I…Continue Reading Anya (Sem 2, 2023)

My Exchange at The University of Manchester Embarking on an exchange to the University of Manchester from New Zealand was a transformative experience, yet there are several key insights I wish I had known beforehand.
