Shalom College is not simply a dormitory that provides board and lodging for students ­ it's "a home-away-from-home" and an education centre for students engaged in higher education at one of Australia's great universities.We are a College that was created by the Jewish community of Sydney for both Jewish and non-Jewish residents. We believe in celebrating diversity and have students of many different races (although mainly of Australian origins) and religions .One of the many things that makes us unique is our commitment to academic excellence
