We welcome all academics, graduates and graduate students

Established in 1911, The Graduate Union of The University of Melbourne is the pre-eminent Australian membership association of graduates across all disciplines, life stages and cultures.

The Graduate Union owns and operates its residential college, Graduate House.

Graduate House is a residential college for undergraduate and graduate university students, as well as for visiting academics, researchers and hospital staff. It is a perfect “home away from home”.

On University Square, Graduate House is in the CBD side of The University of Melbourne and a five minute walk from RMIT University. It is also a short tram ride away from city-based campuses of the Australian Catholic University, Charles Darwin University, Edith Cowan University, Federation University, La Trobe University, Monash University, Southern Cross University, Torrens University and Victoria University.

Students enrolled at any university can stay at Graduate House. The application process is easy – there are no interviews and you do not have to lock into whole year contracts.

A stay at Graduate House can range from one night, to a few months or several years. Meals, utilities (electricity, gas, water), internet access, housekeeping, building services and membership of The Graduate Union of The University of Melbourne Inc. are included. You enter a college with a global and highly influential network.

There are different room types for different preferences and budgets, ranging from single and double ensuite and non-ensuite rooms to self-contained apartments.

Graduate House is renown internationally for being welcoming, safe, vibrant and diverse. In a mature environment, university students pursue their studies, advance their career through living and meeting with the best and brightest from around the world, and make life-long friends.
