Mannix College affiliated with Monash University

Mannix College affiliated with Monash University Mannix College is the only residential college affiliated with Monash University.

Mannix College is a university residential college affiliated with Monash University and located at the university's Clayton campus. The College, which was established more than 45 years ago as a missionary endeavour of the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne, provides fully-catered accommodation in a friendly and supportive environment for 288 undergraduate and postgraduate students of Monash Unive

rsity. For Mannix Collegians, life at College is about much more than simply having a convenient and secure place to stay. The College offers excellent accommodation, support and encouragement to student residents in their academic work as well as their intellectual, cultural, physical, social and spiritual development. By living in a broad and caring academic community, and through the many activities that take place at the College, Mannix Collegians develop skills and gain experience that they will take with them and will assist them in making a successful transition from school to university and from tertiary study to professional life. Along among the accommodation options available to Monash students, Mannix College is dedicated, as a traditional denominational university residential college, to the education of the whole person. Monash University and Mannix College thus form a unique partnership in excellence in Australian higher education.

Five APSAA Excellence Awards. Three years. Weโ€™re deeply grateful, genuinely humbled, and very proud.

Last night in Adelaide, Mannix was once again recognised on the international stage at the Asia-Pacific Student Accommodation Association Excellence Awards, the leading awards program for university accommodation across the Asia-Pacific region.

Mannix received:
๐Ÿ† Best Development Award, for our residential wings refurbishment project
๐Ÿ† Best Student Experience Program, for our Young Hearts intergenerational volunteering partnership with Villa Maria Catholic Homes

These awards continue a remarkable period of recognition of our efforts:
๐Ÿ† 2024 APSAA Excellence Award, Sustainability
๐Ÿ† 2025 APSAA Excellence Award, Student Experience
๐Ÿ† 2025 APSAA Excellence Award, Facility Development
๐Ÿ† 2026 APSAA Excellence Award, Student Experience
๐Ÿ† 2026 APSAA Excellence Award, Facility Development

Principal Andrew Swan was proud (and a bit emotional!) to accept the awards on behalf of the entire Mannix community, and the many wonderful people and partners who help us do what we do best.

While the 2025 awards reflect very different work, they are connected by a shared idea: that place and people both matter deeply.

The refurbishment project was about more than buildings. It was about improving an environment where students feel safe, supported, more comfortable, and proud to call Mannix home.

Young Hearts carries that same spirit into the wider community, bringing together two Catholic communities, one of younger adults and the other of older adults, through friendship, dignity, compassion, and care.

Thank you to APSAA for recognising the humble efforts of our community.

And, most importantly, thank you to our staff, students, Council, partners, alumni, and supporters. These achievements belong to all of you.

With further thanks to our friends at VMCH, the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne, Catholic Development Fund (CDF), SEMZ, Monash University and Harris HMC.

Some nights fill a room. Others change a life.

Family Night was a beautiful reminder that while our students may live away from home, they are never far from the love and support behind them.

Families and friends joined us to share a meal, reconnect, and experience the community their students now call home.

Best of all, thanks to our community raffle, we raised enough to fund a partial scholarship for a 2027 community member. That is community power in action!

Thank you to all who joined us and helped make the night so special. And to our 2027 scholarship recipient, we cannot wait to welcome you to Mannix.

Happy Earth Day ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’š At Mannix College, caring for our environment is part of everyday life.

From growing 51kg of food onsite, to collecting 46,545 cans, reusing 65mยณ of garden waste, and diverting 2,900kg of food waste from landfill, every action contributes to a greener future.

These efforts have been recognised with Diamond Accreditation in the Monash Green Impact Awards (2023, 2024 & 2025) - including multiple student category wins - and the APSAA Excellence in Sustainable Development Goals Award (2024) ๐Ÿ†

A powerful reminder that real impact comes from consistent, collective action ๐Ÿ’š
