The International Welcome Day, also known as International Orientation, is compulsory for international students to attend. Your family or host family are also invited and encouraged to attend. 

It is made up of a number of compulsory activities. These activities help new international students familiarise themselves with life in New Zealand/Aotearoa and studying at Unitec. 

We look forward to welcoming you to the Unitec whānau (family).
