University Melbourne Residential Colleges
The residential colleges at the University of Melbourne offer a supportive, social and academically enriching environment for students to thrive whilst they study with us. They also offer a wide range of scholarships, bursaries and other financial support for students who wish to lessen the costs of living in the city of Melbourne.
Students are encouraged to find out as much about the colleges as possible before deciding which to apply for. College receptions are open on business days, and college staff are always happy to speak to students, parents and teachers who drop in to visit. You may get the opportunity to speak with current residents, to get an inside view on college life.
Alternatively, you and your students are welcome to contact individual colleges to set up appointments for tours on weekends or during the school holidays.
Choosing a college is a personal choice for students - a visit to one or many of them can help them better understand the unique way of life offered by each of the residential colleges at Melbourne.
