Over the past five decades Monash University has evolved from a small suburban campus to one of the most international universities in the world. Today, around one third of Monash University’s students come from outside Australia, each of them making an important contribution to the diversity that is celebrated throughout our University community. From its formation, Monash College has served an invaluable role in offering many of our most outstanding students a pathway into the University. Studying at Monash College is a wonderful opportunity to prepare for Monash life, providing you with skills, support and friendships that you will draw upon throughout your careers. Monash graduates have earned international acclaim for their accomplishments. I hope that in coming years you view your time at Monash College as a formative moment on your journey to joining them.
