The Women's College is one of the residential colleges at the University of Sydney, in the suburb of Camperdown. It was opened in 1892.

The Women's College is the only all-female residential college (the other predominantly-female college, Sancta Sophia, accepts male postgraduates) at the University of Sydney. It accommodates approximately 285 students accepting both under and post-graduate students. The Principal, Vice-Principal and Dean of Students live on the premises. The Women's college has five main wings, Langley, Reid, Main, the Maples and Williams.
