Massey University's Palmerston North campus is one of the best places in the country to experience the real student lifestyle. Nearly half the city's population is under 25, so it is the perfect place for learning and living. The campus has two locations, Turitea ­ renowned for its beautiful park-like setting of trees and gardens, and Hokowhitu ­ on the city-side of the Manawatu River, near the lagoon. Turitea has undergone an extensive facelift in recent years, its heart now a hub of student activity. With a new student centre, food hall and shops ­ the university is meeting the needs of a new generation of students.

Great on-campus sports facilities ­ from the best gym in town to the Institute of Sport and Rugby , equestrian centre  (yes, you can bring your horse) and community athletics track, coupled with many clubs and societies mean it should be the destination of choice for fitness fiends and social butterflies. And four-star plus accommodation right in the centre of campus creates a community that can't be found anywhere else.
