Campus Tours

Join a tour to experience Ara up close and personal!

A campus tour is a great way to see Ara in action and get a feel for what it’s like to study here.

What to expect

  • Before the tour starts, we’ll provide an overview of qualifications, courses and student support services at Ara
  • On the tour you’ll visit subject-specific spaces and facilities such as the library, gym, health centre and student accommodation
  • Your guide will provide information throughout the tour, and you can ask any questions you have

Tours of the City campus take around an hour. Tours of the Woolston campus take between 30 and 40 minutes.
