The Australasian College Broadway was a private college in Sydney, Australia, offering training in beauty, make-up and hairdressing skills. It was founded by Maureen Houssein-Mustafa OAM in 1994,[1][2][3] and placed into administration on December 23, 2016. In 2015 the College earned more than $10.4 million from taxpayer funded loans.

The College is the subject of a NSW Police investigation surrounding allegations that The College, its Chief Financial Officer (Daniel Osborne), and its founder, Mrs. Houssein-Mustafa OAM, claimed federal training loans for under-skilled graduates. The police investigation continues whilst forensic accountants audit the records of the Company.
