Why did you choose to come study at Victoria University of Wellington?

I chose to study at Vic because of its reputation for high-quality education and its location. VUW offers many programs across many disciplines, and its strong International connections mean it can provide many global opportunities!

Wellington is the capital city of New Zealand. The city offers many opportunities for internships and employment. Also, Wellington has a vibrant culture surrounded by stunning nature. There are many fantastic cafes and restaurants to cater to many cuisines. I highly recommend choosing Vic for your studies!

I chose to study at Victoria University of Wellington because I liked my course curriculum and how it is paced. I also especially liked how Victoria University of Wellington has strong connections with various institutions that specialise in medical research, like the Maglahan Institute of Medical Research, and the Capital and Coast District Health Board. On a personal note, however, I found that Wellington has the same vibes as my hometown, Baguio City. They are walkable cities, mountainous, and cold (well, as cold as you can get for a tropical country). I just found that I would be able to make more of a home for myself here, in Wellington. And, so far, I seem to have been right!
