Australian Students
Waikato warmly welcomes students from Australia. Our main campus in Hamilton covers 64 hectares of landscaped gardens and lakes, with extensive sporting and recreational areas and has four Halls of Residence. Or maybe you’ll choose to study at our coastal campus in Tauranga, enjoy all the perks of student life with the added bonus of been surrounded by some of New Zealand’s most spectacular golden beaches and forests.
Whether you decide to study at Hamilton or Tauranga, your Waikato University experience will be a unique adventure where you’ll gain a world-class education and make life-long friends!
