The name was changed to Salmond College in 2006. Salmond and Knox share different parts of the same 4.57 hectare landscaped site (11 acres), located on the north side of the Dunedin Botanic Gardens, close to the area known simply as The Gardens Corner at the foot of North East Valley, approximately 15 minutes walk north of the campus. The site was originally the location for stables for Ross and Glendining Limited, and was donated by the Ross family. The college predominantly provides for first year students, with 40-50 returning for a second year. The college was named after James Salmond, for many years a lecturer at Knox Theological Hall, and his sister Mary Salmond, Principal of the Presbyterian Church's Deaconess Training School in the 1950s. The majority of students are housed in single rooms on one of the four levels in the main building. RLs, known at Salmond “Residential Leaders” are also students who live on site and mentor and support the first year residents. Both the Head and Deputy Head of College reside on the premises. Facilities include a gym, computing facilities, tutorial rooms, a library, television/recreation areas, dining hall, chapel, car-parking, and secure cycle storage. During the summer of 2014/2015 Salmond College was extensively refurbished, creating rooms for up to 261 residents. All bedrooms were be double glazed with new carpet and joinery throughout the College. The College introduced a key card system. President of Salmond College for 2021 is Harry Tran. Harry, who hails from Hastings in Hawke's Bay, returns in 2020 having completed First Year Health Science in 2020 at the University of Otago. Salmond's motto which can be seen in the college crest is 'Gratia et Veritas', or 'Grace and Truth'. At the end of 2020 a whakatauākī was confirmed as a part of the mission statement for the college: Ko te toa i a tini, i a mano o te takata - It is the bravery of a multitude, of thousands of people. This Ngāi Tahu whakatauākī, attributed to Tū Whakauika & Te Oreorehua, refers to the strength of collectivity. As Salmond enters its 50th year in 2021, it reminds us of the power of a living community stretching back several generations, and fosters hope as we continue to grow a community with a shared identity.

Knox College is a selective residential college, established by the Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa New Zealand and affiliated with University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand. The college is set in a 4.57 hectares (11.3 acres) landscaped site in Opoho on the opposite side of the Dunedin Botanic Gardens from the university. It is named after John Knox, a sixteenth century leader of the Scottish Reformation, whose efforts in establishing a universal system of free education comprising both academic learning and character formation had a profound influence, not just in Scotland, but internationally, as subsequent generations of Scottish settlers, products of the Scottish Enlightenment, emigrated to far-flung corners of the globe, including New Zealand, taking with them a deep-seated belief in the benefits of applied knowledge and a broad and liberal education. Those strong Scottish Presbyterian foundations are something that Knox College has in common with the university to which it is affiliated. They are depicted on the college's Coat of Arms in the form of a blue St Andrew's Cross. Superimposed on the St Andrew's Cross is the image of a white dove in flight, carrying an olive branch in its mouth, a symbolic depiction of the flood myth in Genesis 8, wherein the olive-branch-bearing dove is a symbol of life and peace. The college motto, Gratia et Veritas (Latin), or Grace and Truth (English), comes from the Prologue to the Gospel according to Saint John (John 1:).
