    Good campus with a variety of services. Some of them are good: the library, the free computers and printers, the lecture recordings, the many cafes that, although expensive, have some... acceptable food for a campus, etc. Areas of improvement include the way assignments are managed. Group works weigh too much on the final marks, and there's a huge focus on research, while education is only tested via multiple choice quizzes most of the times. All in one, a pleasant experience.

    A very nice campus, just got better. New buildings and infrastructure really add to the charm of Griffith's Gold Coast presence. With the addition of monorail, the campus is even more accessible to public. There are also a few cafes and food places are quite decent. Layout is a little bit strange, I visit about twice a year to give a guest lecture and I always somehow manage to get lost.

    My first University and I loved the atmosphere here. I have been to 2 other Universities and they are not as good as Griffith. The schooling system is clear and very easy to understand. Griffith engages students to work in pairs which enhances friendships. As a first year student, not knowing anyone, no family, 1 fresh high school leaver moving to a different state by myself, Griffith gave me the opportunity to create friendships while learning in class. The lecture rooms and labs were fairly big and spacious. The only problem is the carpark. Quite expensive to park directly on campus. It is very hard to buy car park for the semester/year as it is sold out within minutes. Also I have has so many scratches from my car from other students.

    I have enjoyed my time studying at Griffith University over the past 4 years. While there have been issues here and there I do believe that the faculty value feedback and have implemented ways to fix issues any time I have brought any up. The campus is always clean and has plenty of amenities during the week. The main issue in the past year is that the after hours study spaces have been removed and instead you have to apply for a pass and wait days to get into the Library on a weekend or after hours which is very irritating and unneccessary. The study space previously available for quiet study have been "transformed" into what looks like a tech start-up with loud pingpong tables and couches for people to sleep at, none of which is benefitting the students. Overall my experience has been good but please allow for areas for students who study academically vigorous degrees to study on campus without any delays or distractions.

    I really like Griffith university. The vibe and feel I get there are positive. Maybe it’s cause it’s a public university. There’s one or two lectures in my program that are kinda weird, but the rest are amazing. I wish they permitted that students be able to defer deferred exams, but overall, the best Queensland university in my honest opinion. Overall, I was happy there.

    The campus is huge and even if you don't have anything there it is still amazing to walk through the buildings and see all the different dedicated constructions for different classes etc. All round awesome place to visit (during open days ) amazing staff and great place to study.

    if I could give a negative five stars I would. Run by thugs who want to only hide the problems raised by the students.

    Great track for athletics training. There is now a pay for use fee which is paid at either the kiosk in the grandstand or if this is closed pay at the pool.

    The front desk staff, the student, Katelyn and the Social Worker, Annaliese, we're absolutely fabulous. Their empathy, awareness and knowledge of a wide area of contacts, who can also assist us, was so great. This clinic is available to the public and I couldn't fault it. Very easy to talk to and we will definitely be back. Thank you to all involved. 😁
