Campus is beautiful, but the university is not good value for money. Outdated material, and unmotivated staff.

Really lovely campus, and a wonderful place to study
Fantastic place. It is good for study. quiet and simple
Awesome university. Great experiences. Huge learning. Best place to study.
For bravely bringing to the fore accredited investigative findings of social issues that are currently adversely affect the lives of people in New Zealand.
Don't Nock the University, knock it's funders. Tough times.
The staff are very friendly and able to help. The many facilities and diverse range of people from around the world. What ever your into, there are clubs to join your need or hobby, you also can create it if its not there.
