IES misled families and kept refunds
by: Francine Parent - United StatesProgram: IES Abroad Auckland DE – University of AucklandIn the spring of 2020, our program was understandably cancelled. The University of Auckland refunded our un-used housing fees to IES. IES stalled, lied, and refused to return the refunded monies back to students. Beware of this company’s leadership and practices. Please check the many complaints against this company with the IL Attorney General. The experience in Auckland was amazing but I can not recommend going abroad on any program with IES.
DIY experience
by: Erik - United StatesProgram: IES Abroad Auckland DE – University of AucklandI really appreciated my time in Auckland. Bianca, the program adviser, is absolutely wonderful. Experiencing Maori culture by taking us to her own community was so amazing. However, I think it was definitely necessary to explore campus and the region on your own. I have a lot of close friends from the US that I hung out with in Auckland, but fewer from New Zealand itself. Branching out by yourself is a really important thing to do, and I feel like it could have been stressed a little more. Also, we technically weren't supposed to rent cars. Everyone did anyway, because it is the best way to see New Zealand, and I don't really think this rule should be in place. Housing was average, and an unfortunate roommate situation wasn't the best, however, I was out exploring enough that it didn't make too much of a difference. I met some really amazing people and explored some really cool landscapes out there! The clubs in Auckland are really awesome and I recommend that you join as many as you can to meet people. I definitely would do this program again, it was a really life changing period in my life!
Amazing experience abroad!
by: jbillin2 - United StatesProgram: IES Abroad Auckland DE – University of AucklandI studied abroad in Auckland from July to November (UoA's "semester 2") and had an amazing time. I took a rather relaxed course load so I could focus more on the "abroad" part of study abroad- joining clubs, making new friends (local and international), and traveling around the country on weekends. Afterwards, I was able to spend a month backpacking around the South Island of New Zealand and another 10 days in Thailand and Cambodia- I would highly recommend all of this. Since the semester ended in November and my next semester didn't start until January in the US, I was able to go on this incredible adventure at the end of my trip.
