Who is Student City?
About Student City
We are a funded by the City and some of our education providers. Our job is to make sure that you have the best experience you can while studying here. If there is anything we can do to make your life better please contact us.
The overall goal of the Student City brand, since its inception in 2003 has been to: Position Palmerston North as students’ preferred destination for tertiary study.
Some of its many successes include the provision of free public transport for Massey and UCOL staff and students and Student City events such as Student City Arts and Cultural Awards.
The refreshed Student City brand was launched in 2011 and is based around the concept of Student City as a team.
This concept recognises the value of students, but also encompasses businesses and members of the wider Palmerston North community, whose support is integral in attracting, nurturing and maintaining the city’s student population.
Businesses are encouraged to contact Student City coordinators with details of their student discounts so these may be listed for free on the Student City website.

Specialist Tertiary Educators
More learning opportunities
Private training establishments (PTEs) are the secret heroes of the education sector. They are private organisations quietly training young men and women for practical, fulfilling careers, raising them to the exacting standards set by industry.”You get a double guarantee [with PTE training],” says Mara Marketing CEO Graham Mair. “Not only must these organisations meet standards set by the government, but also the expectations of industry”, says Mr Mair.
PTEs took off in the 90s, although some, like the Hairdressing College, have been around in since the 1960s.
“There’s a commitment to the students’ individual successes,” says Palmerston North School of Design CEO Mike Saywell, highlighting the PTE style of smaller classes, more one-on-one time, and a more personalised education.
All of the region’s PTEs are locally owned and operated. They’ve had the time to build links with industry, which means there are more jobs for graduates, more easily found.
There are a galaxy of options available and all courses are approved by NZQA. And if you’ve left school with no qualifications, most courses are fully government-funded – no fees!
If you feel like a round peg in a square hole and are itching to get your hands on something practical, checkout some of Manawatu’s PTEs and see what’s available. There are a lot of people willing you to succeed, and they’re only too happy to help you.
