Become a UC Star

30 June 2026

Forget TikTok. Be the ultimate influencer.

 

We’re on the hunt for the next group of remarkable UC students to star in our 2027 undergraduate campaigns. If you’ve been making the most of your UC experience and want to inspire future students, then we want to hear from you!

HOW TO APPLY

Our aim is to showcase the exciting, empowering environment and opportunities at UC and all the different ways students are using it to their advantage.

If selected, we’ll be featuring your story through a range of channels across New Zealand, including billboards, bus stops, social media, our website, and more.

What’s involved
 
Application

If this sounds like you, fill out the application form with all the ways you’re making the most of your time at UC.

Applications must be submitted by Sunday 26 July.

 

Selection

The final students will be selected from a range of study areas and backgrounds and notified by Monday 10 August.

Selected students will be contacted to discuss their stories. 

 

Photography and Videography

A professional photo and video shoot will take place during the weeks commencing the 31 August, 5 October and 22 October.

Please note: if you can’t attend this, you will not be eligible for the campaign due to the campaign deadlines. We will also be creating short videos of selected activities you’ll be involved for the rest of the year (approximately three shoots per student, about 3-4 hours each).

To get an idea of what's involved, have a look at our amazing students featured in this year's campaign.

We'd love to hear your story. Apply now!
