Wellington

Sizzling with creative energy, Wellington is a small city with an exciting mix of culture, history, and cuisine. Along with its unique restaurants, markets, and food trucks, Wellington also has picturesque scenery, the perfect backdrop for action sports like mountain biking or kayaking. Rare wildlife encounters are bound to happen in Wellington–go whale watching, visit the glow worm caves, or spot exotic birds.

See How It Works

AIFS has a lot to offer. The more I talked to American students from other programs, the more I realized that AIFS was clearly the best choice.

This program opened my eyes to a culture and society I knew very little about. I made great friends and had a fabulous time during the process. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

I would recommend this program to other prospective students. It was well organized with excellent accommodations and wonderful faculty. A once in a lifetime experience!
