Who We Are

Page is a non-denominational residential college for 295 students. It is well known for its attractive grounds and great facilities, however we believe

Our greatest strength is the people who make up our community - the students and staff

Our residents consistently identify 'friendliness and support' as the key points that make our community distinct from other similar residential colleges.

Page has a history of providing quality services and comfortable rooms with Internet connection. Our fees are kept to a minimum and everything from our study bedrooms, to 21 meals per week, formal dinners, cleaning, weekly linen service, electricity and heating, academic assistance, pastoral care and full use of facilities is included.

Another feature of Page, is that our rooms don't need to be packed up during term break - we are the only College to offer this benefit.

Our College members also enjoy:

  • Unity through diversity

    Page is a diverse community and students of all years share a close bond. We are a large college with students from all faculties and courses, and offer a range of interest groups and activities. We're certainly not a 'cloned' community

  • Student support

    Your Resident Fellow, who is the 'floor leader' for about 25-30 students, will be there with information, advice and a coffee when you need a chat.

    When it comes to needing some assistance with your studies, there's the Senior Fellow and a team of Academic Assistants, most of whom live in the College and understand the pressures and difficulties of particular courses.

    There are regular tutorials and work groups across a range of subjects to assist you, and when it comes to presenting your work, the College Computer Officer keeps the computers and printers up to date.

  • Opportunities for student leadership

    At Page there are opportunities for student leadership with approximately 60 official positions available to residents each year. Many of these positions offer a casual wage, while others provide a percentage off college fees for the year.

  • Links to the wider community

    We invite members of the local community to lectures and to our well-known Annual Politics Dinner and Lecture. Past speakers include: John Howard, Peter Garrett, Philip Ruddock and Julia Gillard.

The atmosphere, friendliness, student support and college spirit here at Page is extremely high - we pride ourselves on 'getting in and having a go'.
