Accommodation

Off-campus: In Australia, share housing where you share a house or apartment with a number of other students is the most common form of off-campus accommodation. On-campus: On-campus accommodation is available at all campuses except South Bank. Living on campus is a fantastic way to meet new people, find out about new cultures, and develop independence. On-campus accommodation is usually fully furnished and provides access to laundry facilities, gym equipment, common rooms, internet and organised student activities. Homestay: Homestay accommodation gives you the option of living with an Australian family while you study. Homestay is available to students at all Griffith campuses. Homestay is a great way to develop your English language skills and experience life in Australia and offers catered and self-catered options. Temporary accommodation: We recommend you organise temporary accommodation for your first few days or weeks in Queensland, as it is important that you inspect your long-term off-campus accommodation before you move in. Temporary on-campus accommodation is available at Mt Gravatt, Nathan and South Bank campuses.
