Griffith University - [GU], Brisbane, Queensland - Accommodation

Hostel:

well to be honest I didn't got the chance to live there but accommodation i chose to live in a villa where all the facilities from washing machine to internet all are there excluding the electricity bill and we are 7 people are going to live there.

There are several reasons behind accepting the offer. Firstly, the location that is gold coast such an exquisite place having pleasant weather all over the year. Secondly, GC is the tourist place so getting a job will be a bit easier in comparison to other states. Lastly, Griffith university was famous for the course which I am pursuing and it is the most important reason among all.

Hostel:

No. I live with a childhood friend in the suburbs near university. The house is 2 minutes away from a bus stop that has buses that take you to Griffith University Mt. Gravatt Campus in 20 minutes.

I chose the Bachelor of Psychology (Hons.) Program at Griffith University as the cost of the course for international students is more affordable when compared to other universities in Australia. The course is highly regarded in the country as one of the best schools to offer APAC registered psychology courses. The university has plenty support systems such as international student advisors and griffith mates which helps nee students integrate into the community and get to know other new students and the country. These support systems aided in my decision making process of chosing a university.

Its a nice quiet uni in the woods. It's a beautiful campus. The courses are understanding and at my pace. The community is international and very queer-friendly. Griffith uni has nice classes with recorded lectures and workshops. I also did a biomedical science degree. The lecturers listen to students.

Hostel:

I preferred to go for off-campus accommodation. This was because I lived close to uni so it was cheaper for me to stay at home. I think staying at college can be tricky and expensive for people. However, students from rural areas may have no other option.

It was known for being a good uni for a teaching degree. The campus is small and easy to navigate but still has a couple of cafes and lots of space to study. The uni was very close to my house so I saved money by staying at home.

I chose Griffith because it is well rated by other peers and very well known for its nursing course. It's close to home and easy for me to access the on-campus classes and off campus curriculum online.

Hostel:

On campus at Griffith, we have on-campus accommodation in the form of three colleges across two campuses. It is on this that there is flat style accommodation and dorm style accommodation. The rent includes boarding, water, electricity, and the internet. However, the rooms can be quite depressing the staff relatively overbearing and controlling at times.

The entry level was easy to achieve for the degree I wanted, had really good reports from past students. It has great teaching staff for the subjects with a ton of real-world experience and offers a lot of practical elements to go with the theory. Also has pretty decent and cheap accommodation.

I chose this college because of its wide range of courses I can choose between and the ability to merge some degrees within each other. At some colleges, they only have degrees such as law but at Griffith, they have degrees that you can merge such as law and politics.

Hostel:

I share a unit off campus with my partner, it's a uni accommodation apartment building so all utilities are included making and the rent is cheap and we really love it.

I was from a different state where the closest uni didn't offer my chosen degree, Griffith came and had an info day and I really liked the values and the location to move to.
