College 3 is the third college built on campus, accommodating 240 students in single, double and triple apartments. Students in double and triple rooms have their own bedroom and share a bathroom with the other inhabitants of the apartment. The 26 single rooms in College 3 have their own private bathroom. All students share a kitchen with 16 to 20 other students.

There is a laundry room in each of the four blocks and also a large common room, equipped with pool, football and table tennis tables as well as a lounge for relaxing and a multimedia room for watching movies and socialising.

College 3 is known as the sports college. Often, the students make up the majority of the sports teams on campus and this is helped by its proximity to the campus gym and tennis and basketball courts. Students of College 3 really enjoy the annual sports event, the Jacobs Games, but are also known to show the artsy side at Art On!, where they always compete for the top places! The students work hard as well, though – the large QSA is full every night with students from not only College 3 but also other colleges coming to make use of the productive environment. College 3 is the green college and the mascot is the dragon, which you can see at many campus events! Like dragons, they are strong and fearless!

College 3 has two big dates in the academic year. They organize the Halloween party for their students every year in October – this is the biggest party of the year, at which everyone dresses up and shows their spooky side! They also invite the kids of staff, faculty, the local kindergarden and neighborhood to a wonderful children’s party and get to see how all the little ghouls and ghosts get excited about playing games and getting candy from ‘Trick or Treat’! The second date in the calendar of College 3 is the annual Quiz Night. Over 200 people gather in the servery, again often dressed up, to battle to prove that they are the smartest guys on campus! Next to these events, they host amazing Superbowl, Oscars and Eurovision parties, taking advantage of the awesome multimedia room and its large screen. On top of all this, they have regular movie nights organized by the RAs and cheer ups organized by the student team.
