The colleges were designed to help the university prepare for a larger residential college system. This system was planned for the new Hengqin campus. In 2014, the college moved to the Hengqin campus. It was renamed Henry Fok Pearl Jubilee College. This honored the late Henry Fok Ying Tung. The Henry Fok Foundation made a generous donation to the university. Mr. Fok was a key figure in Macao’s 20th-century development. He was also a noted philanthropist. The college’s signature color is orange. The first students chose it in 2010. Orange symbolizes warmth, good nature, health, and energy. It reflects the spirit of the college community.

Laranja appears at college events, on t-shirts, and in publications. The college crest features oranges and an orange tree. Chen Fei designed the crest in 2015. Fei was a Resident Tutor at the college from 2011. The college logo includes the crest and the college name. The name is written in Chinese, Portuguese, and English. Professor Sai Chuen Hui is the current College Master. He began his term in 2024. Previous College Masters include Professor Kai Meng Mok and Professor George Watt.
