Verdict at Massey University

This is a comparatively relaxed moderate-sized university with a lesser cost of living than the rest of New Zealand and the United States. If you are not good at independent academic learning, you may face issues. There is no hand-holding here. Overall, it is one of the best universities in New Zealand but particularly Palmerston may feel a little cut-out from the world. Students advise to choose the Wellington campus in that case. If you seek primarily education and nothing much, this university will not disappoint you.

Verdict at Massey University

This is a comparatively relaxed moderate-sized university with a lesser cost of living than the rest of New Zealand and the United States. If you are not good at independent academic learning, you may face issues. There is no hand-holding here. Overall, it is one of the best universities in New Zealand but particularly Palmerston may feel a little cut-out from the world. Students advise to choose the Wellington campus in that case. If you seek primarily education and nothing much, this university will not disappoint you.
