Welcome to Selwyn College

Selwyn College is the oldest residential college in Dunedin and prides itself on having a well-connected community and strong traditions.  As an independent college owned by the Anglican Church affiliated to the University of Otago, life at Selwyn College is enriched by our special character.

Passing on the 'torch of life' is the motto which every 'Selwynite' learns the meaning of during their time at the College. Selwyn has a special relationship with Knox and the two colleges meet face to face in cultural and sporting competitions throughout the year. 

Welcome! Take a look around and immerse yourself in what Selwyn has to offer.
