RE Christ College is the oldest tertiary foundation in Australia, dating back to 1846. Today it is the University owned residential College in Hobart offering a stimulating and supportive Collegiate experience with academic and pastoral care in a community of undergraduates and graduates, tutors and Fellows. Everything you need is provided for you at Christ College as part of the inclusive fee.
Accommodation is in single study-bedrooms, each with a phone.
Basic furniture is provided, as are blankets and linen, changed weekly. It is easy to get back to the College for lunch but cut lunches can be provided for those working on the City campus or elsewhere, and late dinners can be provided on request. We have a computer room with a network of computers, laser printers and internet access. The College and the Student Club welcome international students. We have designated students to welcome and look after those arriving from overseas for the first time, and help them understand and fit into College life.
