Kolej Dua Belas, Universiti Putra Malaysia was opened in May 2000, along with the opening of Kolej Empat Belas. Initially, this residential college was open to female students only. But, it opens its gates to male students as well.

Facility maintenance at Kolej Dua Belas is under the responsibility of PJS Development under the B.O.T policy. (Build-Operate-Transfer). This policy states that PJS Development (or better known as PJSD) will open a settlement at Universiti Putra Malaysia and will monitor and maintain the building and facilities for 25 years (starting from the year 2000). After the end of that period, PJSD will hand over all its maintenance rights back to the university. B.O.T. policy was an option at that time to reduce the impact experienced by a country that had just been hit by economic turmoil.
