Get ready to start your Griffith journey with confidence

The Student Academy of Excellence (SAE) offers early entry membership to outstanding secondary school students from Griffith’s partner schools.

Through free mentoring, enrichment experiences and opportunities to connect with current undergrads, you’ll build confidence and discover what’s possible for your future before you even start uni.

Not only will membership help ease the jump from school to uni, you’ll also gain a ready-made group of uni friends along the way.

Unlock further opportunities

When you begin your undergraduate studies at Griffith, your membership will continue to open doors to prestigious scholarships, personalised mentoring with academic and industry experts and even global experiences.
