King’s College was founded in 1912 by the Methodist Church to provide a residence for men studying at The University of Queensland. The College was initially located
at Kangaroo Point in Brisbane and moved to new buildings in St Lucia in 1955. King’s became co-residential in 2020. As a Uniting Church College, King’s College now
provides accommodation for more than 350 resident Collegians and support for 100 Associate Members studying at The University of Queensland and other tertiary
institutions in Brisbane. The College operates as a diverse academic residential community of undergraduate and postgraduate students drawn from country and
suburban areas throughout Australia as well as many other nations.
King’s is committed to creating an on-campus community to maximise the experience of university life and to produce successful graduates. With more than 110 years’
experience helping young people navigate the challenges of life, King’s provides an accepting, encouraging environment which supports our Collegians’ wellbeing
