Apply to Janet Clarke Hall

You may only submit one application form for all of the residential colleges of Melbourne University.

Applications can either be performed online, or you can download an application form and post it to Janet Clarke Hall. To complete your application form, you need to:

1. Fill out application form
2. Write a Statement of Application
3. Send Referees Reports to your referees
4. Send in your application form with Statement of Application, four passport photographs, and $35 application fee. The application cannot be processed until the fee has been received.

The college offers a range of scholarship on the basis of academic merit, and will consider the provision of financial assistance in the case of demonstrated need. New students will be considered automatically for scholarships. If you wish to apply for financial assistance, please see the 'Scholarships and bursaries' section of this website for further information.

You do not need to wait for your exam results or to be offered a university place to submit your application, however once you do receive them, forward them immediately on to the college.

We usually have a small number of vacancies at the end of 1st semester. Please contact the college if you are interested.

You are more than welcome to have a tour of the college. Contact the college office to arrange a suitable time.

What happens next?

You will receive a letter from us confirming the receipt of your application form and requesting you to come and have a meeting with the Principal. If you are applying from overseas or interstate, your interview will generally be conducted via telephone, although you are welcome to attend the college interview.

Your application is then kept aside until the University offers have been made. If you have been successful in gaining a place we will be in touch with you to inform you if you have been offered a place at Janet Clarke Hall, or if we are unable too offer you a place, to talk to you about your options.

Please note that if you have not been successful in gaining a place at the University of Melbourne, RMIT, or Monash Pharmacy, your application will not be active. You must let the college know if at any time you change your University preference, if you are deferring, or if any other situation might arise that could affect your application.
