Medley Hall is the smallest of the Colleges of the University of Melbourne, and is owned by the University. It is housed in a Victorian era mansion in Drummond Street, Carlton. The building is owned by the Victorian government, but is on indefinite lease to the University. It has a more intimate atmosphere than the larger Colleges, and many of its students are either from the country or are immigrants. In 2008 the Foundation agreed to sponsor four students at Medley.

Medley Hall was closed for renovations in 2009, as it no longer met fire safety regulations but, after some encouragement from the Foundation, it was renovated and modernised, and re-opened in July 2011. The Foundation granted special scholarships to some of the displaced students while it was closed
