Auckland is a big city with lots of different living options; inner-city excitement or tranquil bush settings; apartment-living or a shared flat.
The area you choose to live in will affect your rent cost and lifestyle. Be sure to consider factors such as commuting, public transport and access to Future Skills Academy. Find information on Auckland suburbs at Hometopia.
As well as location, there are different types of accommodation for you to think about. Look at all the options available and choose what best suits your personal needs and budget.
Apartments
There are many popular apartments for international students in the city centre that are suitable for both short and long-term accommodation including Unilodge, Empire Apartments, Princeton Apartments, and Columbia Apartments. Impression Real Estate, just up the road from campus, is another good place to visit when looking for an apartment to rent.
Homestay accommodation
Homestays are a popular form of accommodation for international students and visitors, especially for those who want to improve their English and experience New Zealand culture. It is a great way to settle in a new country and get to know its surroundings. Two homestay providers we work with are Host Families NZ and Auckland Homestay Services.
Host Families NZ matches students and visitors with their ideal host family by providing each party with a detailed profile. You can feel safe and secure knowing that all host families are interviewed, and police screened. Whether you’re looking for short-term or long-term stays, their dedicated and experienced team match you with your ideal host. The placement fee is $300 and weekly accommodation is $330. Additional fees may be charged if you have special food requirements. You can expect a safe and welcoming family environment, a private bedroom, laundry availability, breakfast and dinner every day, lunches over the weekends, internet, electricity and water, and 24-hour support in case of an emergency.

He partnered with Otago Polytechnic in 2012 to establish the Otago Polytechnic Auckland International Campus, catering to international learners wanting a New Zealand tertiary qualification.
