Academic Resources: Mannix offers academic support services, including tutoring, study groups, and academic advisors. These resources can improve your academic performance and provide a sense of achievement, contributing to your overall success.

Time Management: Living on campus eliminates the need for a daily commute and managing household tasks, giving you more time to focus on your studies, hobbies, and self-care. This improved time management can positively impact your well-being and success.

Safety and Security: Living in a secure environment on campus can alleviate safety concerns, leading to reduced stress and better mental health.

Sense of Accomplishment: Participating in community service, leadership roles, and extracurricular activities offered by the college can provide a sense of purpose and accomplishment that contributes to your overall happiness and success.

Personal Independence: While being part of a community, Mannix also encourages personal independence and responsibility. Learning to manage your own living space and time can boost your self-esteem and life skills.

In essence, our supportive environment, comprehensive resources, and focus on personal growth can positively impact your happiness, health, and success throughout your university journey and beyond.

Great colleges are built across generations. Each generation inherits something special, adds to it, and leaves it stronger than they found it.

Today, Principal Andrew Swan has shared a personal letter announcing that he will conclude his five-year term as Principal of Mannix College on 18 December 2026, before commencing as Head of College at University College, The University of Melbourne, in 2027.

Read Andrew's full letter via the news section of our website.

💙 As EOFY approaches, we want to say thank you.

To everyone who has supported the 2026 Mannix Foundation Annual Appeal; your generosity is helping students access opportunity, connection, support and community.

Over the past few weeks, we've shared the stories of Caitlin, Jack, Kyra, Neve and Declan. Their experiences show that scholarships are about so much more than financial support - they help create life-changing opportunities.

Every donation, big or small, helps make the Mannix experience possible for future students.

If you've been thinking about making a contribution, there's still time before 30 June.

✨ Your Gift. Their Future.

“Mannix showed me that being a scholarship recipient isn’t about where you come from… it’s more about your character.” 💚

Kyra’s journey from Geelong to Monash and Mannix has been shaped by support, opportunity and community.

“The one thing I would like donors to know, is that if it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be here. They’ve given me the opportunity…”

Declan had moved all the way from Mackay in Queensland to pursue his dream of becoming a doctor.

Receiving Mannix Foundation Scholarship has made his journey possible, giving him access to the support and resources he needs to succeed.

Every gift helps create opportunity, belonging and support for students who need it most.

From little things, big things grow. 🌿

Three years ago, students at Mannix started Together We Grow, a living wall of reconciliation.

Each tile carries a person's initials and thumbprint, a lasting reminder of their commitment to learning, respect, truth-telling and reconciliation.

What began as a student idea has become a growing community legacy.

One tile. One commitment. One step forward.

Thank you to the many student leaders who have shaped this project through our Indigenous Advisory Committee, and to Johnson Tiles Australia for their generous donation of 1,000 tiles.

Together, we grow.

Year by year. Tile by tile. Commitment by commitment.

We look forward to the day this wall is filled with the initials, thumbprints and shared commitments of generations of the Mannix community.

“Being surrounded by so many talented and smart people at Mannix really pushes you to do better”

Meet Neve, a third generation Mannixian pursuing her love of Maths and Engineering. 

After working long hours throughout her first year to support herself, Neve found the demands of balancing work and study took a toll on her academic results.

Whether it’s a one-off gift or a small recurring contribution, every gift matters.

💙 A scholarship is more than financial support.

It can mean the opportunity to move away from home, the confidence to pursue a degree, the friendships that last a lifetime, and the chance to truly thrive at university.

No matter the size, every gift helps create opportunities for future students.

Every year,  we line up, squeeze in, and try to capture the “perfect” shot 📸✨ A snapshot of a moment in time in the colleges history. 

It’s more than just a class photo - it’s a yearly tradition, with each one added to the collection dating back to the very first cohort in 1969.
