SASS X ISIC
​
We want you to enjoy your time abroad here in NZ and make the most of your exchange! We know that anything that can ease the load on your budget is greatly appreciated, so we've teamed up with International Student Identity Card (ISIC) to help!
​
​What is ISIC?
ISIC is all about making student life better. The ISIC card was first established in 1953 and is now issued to students in over 130 countries. As a full-time university student, you can apply for a student card with ISIC. For more information about eligibility and discounts, check here.
​
The ISIC card has been endorsed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) since 1968. The card is recognised by universities, academic institutions, student unions, national governments, financial institutions and ministries of education around the world.
