St Stanislas College (Dutch: Stanislascollege) is a conglomerate of private Catholic secondary schools located in Delft, Pijnacker, and Rijswijk, in the province of South Holland, in the Netherlands.

Saint Stanislas College itself was founded in Delft as a Gymnasium in 1948 by the Society of Jesus.[1] When other surrounding schools needed to work together to secure funding they joined to form a conglomerate. In 2007, there were 4,253 students.[2] It is the third largest school in Delft, after the Christian Lyceum Delft and Grotius College. The College is part of the international network of Jesuit schools.[3]
