UNSW Hall is a residential college that is a part of University of New South Wales' student accommodation portfolio, founded in 2014.
At its founding, UNSW Hall occupied a facility built in 1959 that previously hosted Phillip Baxter College, then all three Kensington colleges during their redevelopment. In 2018, this facility was identified by the university as end of life,[1] threatening UNSW Hall with closure. Following a "Save UNSW Hall" campaign by residents against this, the college relocated to its current site on the north side of the University of New South Wales' Kensington campus in 2019, occupying one tower in the UNSW Village complex.
