The Archbishop of Melbourne has permitted the Chapel of the Holy Spirit to be used for Catholic weddings of graduates or present students of the University of Melbourne, or of other Victorian universities which do not have their own chapel.
The Archdiocese of Melbourne does not allow christenings or funerals at Newman College Chapels, except for regular attendees at Newman College Masses.
