Ġ.F. Abela Junior College, commonly known as the Junior College (JC), is a further education college in Msida, Malta, which prepares students for the Matriculation Certificate. It was established in 1995 by the University of Malta. It is named after the 17th-century Maltese historian Giovanni Francesco Abela.

Students may choose from a range of subjects and must take two subjects at Advanced Level, three at Intermediate Level, as well as Systems of Knowledge. Since the college forms part of the University of Malta, students are able to become familiar with the university campus. College and university students collaborate on cultural projects such as concerts, drama, sport, student exchanges, debates and seminars.
