Wellington is multicultural and well connected, full of bright, open-minded people and is home to embassies and consulates from around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The city is dynamic and creative, hosting festivals for food, art, literature and theatre all year round with spectacular performances, parades, delicious food and street stalls and one of the biggest annual film festivals in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Wellington is one of the safest cities in the world. Its urban design favours people and community over cars and traffic, with popular centres where people can walk, rest or gather for events in a traffic-free, colourful space. It has excellent public transport, but many students find that they do not need to use it because they can simply walk anywhere they need to be.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Accommodation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are many accommodation options for you when you transfer to Wellington as a Victoria student. Victoria\u2019s Accommodation Service has various Halls of Residence available, some provide meals while others are self-catered. These are listed in the Accommodation Guide, available from the programme office at HCMC, and on the\u00a0Accommodation Service website.<\/p>\n<p>While prices vary, we recommend that you budget at least NZ$390 a week for accommodation including food and other expenses. Please note there is a non-refundable application fee of NZ$75 for first time applicants to a Hall of Residence.<\/p>\n<p>The Accommodation Service also assists students to find other accommodation such as private board, furnished rooms, vacant flats or a place in an established flat. They operate an online vacancy service advertising current listings and this is updated daily on the Accommodation Service website. Private housing is not checked or approved by Victoria University.<\/p>\n<p>Homestays can also be arranged for international students at Victoria.

This doesn\u2019t increase the workload or make the degree take longer\u2014you still complete 360 points worth of courses.<\/p>\n<p>Choosing two majors in your first-year is a good way to keep your study options open and flexible. You can continue with your double major in second-year, or you can change and focus on just one subject with the other as a minor.<\/p>\n<p>A minor is an optional part of a degree, made up of a collection of courses in a particular subject. The workload for a minor is lighter than for a major\u2014fewer courses to do, fewer points required. This makes a minor a good way to build a second or third area of focus or concentration into your degree.<\/p>\n<p>All majors can be also be taken as a minor. You might also be able to study majors from other Victoria undergraduate degrees as a minor\u2014for example, a Bachelor of Commerce with a major in Management, and a minor in Psychology.<\/p>\n<p>Some subjects are not available as majors, but you can take them as a minor. Other subjects have special requirements and course options as minors.<\/div><\/div><div class=\"td_block_wrap td_block_text_with_title td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1\"  data-td-block-uid=\"td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f\" >\n<style scoped>\n.td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td_module_wrap:hover .entry-title a,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-pulldown-filter-link:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-subcat-item a:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-cur-simple-item,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td_quote_on_blocks,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-opacity-cat .td-post-category:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-opacity-read .td-read-more a:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-opacity-author .td-post-author-name a:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-instagram-user a {\r\n                color: #115737 !important;\r\n            }\r\n\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-next-prev-wrap a:hover,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-load-more-wrap a:hover {\r\n                background-color: #115737 !important;\r\n                border-color: #115737 !important;\r\n            }\r\n\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .block-title > *,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-trending-now-title,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-read-more a,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-weather-information:before,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-weather-week:before,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-subcat-dropdown:hover .td-subcat-more,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-exchange-header:before,\r\n            .td-footer-wrapper .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-post-category,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-post-category:hover {\r\n                background-color: #115737 !important;\r\n            }\r\n            .td-footer-wrapper .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .block-title > * {\r\n                padding: 6px 7px 5px !important;\r\n                line-height: 1;\r\n            }\r\n\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .block-title {\r\n                border-color: #115737 !important;\r\n            }\r\n\r\n            \r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .block-title > *,\r\n            .td_uid_6_6a9d8a589329f_rand .td-trending-now-title {\r\n                color: #ffffff !important;\r\n            }\n<\/style><h4 class=\"block-title\"><span class=\"td-pulldown-size\">Students service and support<\/span><\/h4><div class=\"td_mod_wrap\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #115737;\"><strong>Maximise your employablility<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Make the most of your studies\u2014explore career opportunities, join a club, leadership programme, or look at studying overseas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Careers and Employment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We lead in the development and delivery of the highest quality career education, guidance and information to students and alumni, and foster collaborative relationships with local, national and international employers and communities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CareerHub<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Victoria CareerHub is an online system that provides you with all you need to know about job seeking, career planning and graduate recruitment.
