Student Support Team
Student Association (SASS)
The Carey Student Association (SASS) is a voluntary organisation for students, run by students. SASS prioritises building relationships and supporting students through events, activities and peer support. Rebecca Hooper, SASS President, says “our heart is for cultivating a thriving sense of community.” SASS also nominates representatives to Carey’s Academic Committee and Board. SASS hosts its own Facebook group, which we encourage you to join.

Transportation and Accommodation
Transportation
Carey’s campus is nearest the Ellerslie train station. Using public transport is easiest with a pre-paid AT HOP card, which you can purchase from Auckland Transport at at.govt.nz.
Accommodation
Carey does not provide accommodation, and all students are responsible for any personal expenses such as travel, medical and personal insurance, stationary, food, accommodation, and other personal need-related costs incurred during study at Carey.
If you plan to relocate to study on-site, requiring long-term accommodation, you can explore options through third parties. Short-term accommodation is available in Ellerslie, Greenlane, Sylvia Park, and other nearby suburbs.
