Macleod College is a co-educational, Prep to Year Twelve school located on the corner of May and Carwarp Streets, Macleod, Melbourne, Australia. The College grew out of the merger of Macleod High School and Macleod Primary School in 2000. It has two sister schools, the Geschwister Scholl Gymansium (GSG) in Düsseldorf, Germany and the Hauibei Experimental School in the Anhui province in China and has an international student program.
Macleod College is next to the Macleod railway station and Macleod kindergarten. It shares facilities with the adjacent Banyule NETS stadium. The College has over thirty feeder primary schools and many students come from areas where Macleod is not their closest school. In 2010 Macleod College obtained funds through the National School Pride Program to renovate its Year Seven area to an open-plan design and the Primary Schools for the 21st Century program to build a new wing for Grade 3-6 students.

Famous quotes containing the word college:
“Jerry: She’s one of those third-year girls that gripe my liver.
Milo: Third-year girls?
Jerry: Yeah, you know, American college kids. They come over here to take their third year and lap up a little culture. They give me a swift pain.
Milo: Why?
Jerry: They’re officious and dull. They’re always making profound observations they’ve overheard.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
