History
The locality takes its name from the former Queensland Agricultural College (now the University of Queensland Gatton Campus) in neighbouring Lawes.
On 28 August 1900, a public meeting was held to obtain a school in the district as there was an estimated 30 children who would attend. The Queensland Agricultural College offered 1 acre (0.40 ha) of its land (although this was subsequently increased as the Queensland Government thought more land was required for a school).[3] College View Provisional School opened on 26 August 1901 with Miss Lewis as headteacher.[4] On 1 January 1909 it became College View State School. The school closed in 1958.[5]
In the 2016 census College View had a population of 84 people.[1]
