Griffith, Australia

With a population of just 20,569, Griffith is a sleepy outpost in the Australian outback. While the university boasts high employer satisfaction and graduate outcomes, the reality is a far cry from the idyllic campus life described. Bureaucracy is a persistent headache, with the university reporting dozens of sexual abuse cases in recent years that resulted in just one short suspension. For those seeking a tranquil, isolated lifestyle, Griffith may be a suitable choice, but the tradeoffs in safety and student experience are significant.
