I'm no help at all with Australia, but by all means come to NZ! I live in Wellington, and I love it here. It's a lot smaller than Auckland, but we do have a good university (Victoria University of Wellington) and a goodish university (Massey University, they have campuses in Auckland, Wellington and Palmerston North).
I wouldn't live in Auckland again, they have huge traffic problems, and it's really big and suburbanised and impersonal. Palmerston North is small, very much a university town, but it has good shops and cafes and bars, and it's quite lively for a little place. My parents live close to there, and I was there for six weeks for work in Summer.
Dunedin is another good university town (Otago University). I haven't been there in years, but it's quite cute and has a great student culture. Also, you get SNOW in winter in Dunedin!! (snow is a novelty to me cause we don't get it here in Wellington).
Other universities to try might be University of Auckland, Lincoln University, Waikato University and Canterbury University.
All of NZ is pretty OK, when it comes down to it.
