When will you start studying?
You will need to plan your travel so that you are settled into your accommodation ready to attend Orientation. If you are studying the Direct Entry Program before commencing a Griffith degree or Griffith College Program, you will need a start date for a term that finishes in the term before the trimester begins. If you are a General English student, you can start at any time.
