Each campus has an international support office to help answer your questions and provide you with a range of services and support while you are studying with us. This includes information on the Campus, enrolment processes, assisting with visa renewals, accommodation arrangements and airport collection. We also run comprehensive orientation programmes and throughout the year you will have the opportunity to enjoy social events and functions.
Our role is to ensure that you have the support to realise your academic aspirations. That support is provided in various ways, from accessing the assistance of our Pasifika Liaison and Learning Advisers to a friendly word of advice and encouragement.
Choosing where you will live is one of the most important decisions you will make when you study at Massey.

We can help you to answer the following questions:
Chaplains are here to support students through their time at Massey University. They have a holistic understanding of life as physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual.
Our campus chaplains offer a listening ear. They are trained in pastoral care, and affiliated with the Aotearoa New Zealand Tertiary Chaplaincy Association.
We want to help you achieve your career and life’s goals, by encouraging and supporting you wherever you are in your life’s journey. We believe that life is a spiritual journey and our chaplains are here to listen and discuss a wide range of topics.
Please come and visit us. You can get a cuppa, read, study, chill out, chat - whenever the door is open you are welcome to drop in, or make an appointment to talk to a campus chaplain.
Noticeable by their green t-shirt and winning smile, Massey Guides are friendly, helpful, have initiative, and are very much part of the campus experience for our new students. Massey Guides are students who have applied, been selected and trained to provide voluntary support to new students as they undertake their first year of study at Massey University.
