Off-Campus Accommodation
Across its five campuses, Griffith University has formed relationships with a variety of off-campus housing companies. The partners were chosen based on a number of variables, including proximity, pricing, and amenities. You can be close to your selected college and have access to public transportation by staying at a preferred partner. Some of the attractions are only a 5-minute walk away. You may not realise it, but if you are studying at Nathan or Mt Gravatt, you may live in the inner city or on the South Bank and take public transportation to your campus.
