International House is a landmark institution within the University of Melbourne. Opened in 1957, it was the first International House in Australia and the first co-educational college at the University. Situated at 241 Royal Parade in Parkville, it provides co-educational accommodation to 350 undergraduate and graduate students who are attending the university and nearby tertiary institutions.
Still owned and operated by the University today, it maintains a direct link to the institution's academic mission. The House is a dedicated, scholar-focused community that emphasizes holistic development through pastoral care and peer mentoring, upholding a legacy of inclusion and global citizenship that has defined it for nearly 70 years.
