Austin College - We Welcome You

As the youngest of the seven residential colleges at the University of New England, we know what students in 2009 want from college life.   We understand that this will be your new home and extended family during a very significant time – the enriching, exciting and never-to be-forgotten years at university which await you.

Austin is an integrated community, in which the College Master and his assisting staff, Resident Fellows and College Fellows, share an easy communication with all students. We pride ourselves on an innate and powerful college spirit of mutual encouragement, where each individual finds a niche for his or her talents. We are at the forefront in both sporting and cultural arenas and offer innumerable opportunities for you to participate and excel – even as a talented crowd supporter!

An exciting development at Austin will be the introduction of meal package options in 2010, giving you more flexibility. More information can be found here.
