Program Overview
In this program, facilitated by IFSA-Butler, students enroll directly in the University of Canterbury, on New Zealand's epic South Island. Students live in furnished student flats across the road from campus. Christchurch is the largest city in the South Island, which has a variety of activities such as hiking, rock climbing, skiing, movies, concerts and art exhibitions. The city center is just a quick 15 minutes away from campus.
This program is located in the Southern Hemisphere, where the academic calendar differs from the Northern Hemisphere. Please check the start and end dates carefully to make sure they don't conflict with other obligations, such as a summer internship.
