Student Testimonial

"Campion College offers a course that will form my mind, and more importantly, help me to know and appreciate my faith more deeply. I love how authentically Catholic Campion College is - it’s so good to be able to go to daily Mass and to be surrounded by such a wonderful community. I’ve always enjoyed the humanities, especially literature and so to study some of the greatest authors of all time in an environment that will help me achieve sanctity is a dream come true. I’m so grateful and blessed to be here." — Anastasia Marambos (relocated from New Zealand to study at Campion College)

School’s Comments:

Institution: Campion College is the only Catholic liberal arts college in Australia. We place a strong emphasis on cultivating a tight-knit community of learning, faith and human flourishing. Located in western Sydney, Campion College offers a uniquely integrated and fully accredited Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts and a Diploma of Classical Languages. Through the study of history, literature, philosophy and theology, studied in tandem in a chronological timeline from antiquity to the present day, students are taught to think critically, argue rationally and develop the creative, analytical and research skills that are foundational in any vocation and sought after in many careers. While many university students feel like just another number in a crowd, at Campion College everyone knows your name. Rather than viewing university education as mere job training, we strives to embody St. John Henry Newman’s prescription for a university education in forming the entire person: spiritual, intellectual, social and vocational. We have an active college community, which runs numerous social, sporting and chaplaincy societies and events throughout the academic year, including the popular annual ball. Politicians, journalists, authors, academics, bishops, lawyers and other professionals are regularly invited to speak at Campion College, giving students an unparalleled opportunity to meet and talk to esteemed members of the community in an intimate setting, as well as to seek advice and create professional networks. We offers daily Mass, as well as opportunities for Adoration, Confession, recitation of the Rosary and other faith-based activities, run by the college chaplain and chaplaincy team. A private institution not run by the Church, Campion College is grounded in the Catholic faith and exercises faithfulness to Church teaching, helping students live out their faith in all areas of life.

Dorms: On-campus accommodation is segregated, male and female, across all dormitories and residential halls. Students are not permitted to enter rooms of the opposite sex, and access to living spaces is limited. Each residential area is assigned a residential assistant, a senior student of the college who plans social activities and assists students with settling into college life. All residential assistants are under the direct supervision of the Student Life Manager.
