Get involved in your study abroad experience and Fiji homestay

Local homestay – Viti Levu, Fiji

The more you put into your trip the more you will get out of it. Fortunately, at AUIP we offer lots of opportunities for you to get involved and maximize your study abroad experience, whether it’s by sharing your adventures through writing, by contributing your photos to our social media sites, or by becoming an intern with us.

Your trip to the South Pacific is part of your life story, something that you will always remember. It will be exciting, exhausting and exhilarating. It will challenge you and change you. It will be tremendous. Tell everyone about it!

Marketing the magic

Participating in an AUIP Student Marketing Internship was a personally and professionally rewarding experience. It is a great thrill seeing a student’s eyes light up at the potential of having such a unique global engagement opportunity through AUIP’s study abroad programs. Through this internship, I was supported and mentored in my position and was able to gain significant skills that will excel me forward in my future professional roles. I highly recommend joining the AUIP team!
