The Gold Coast was especially selected for the location of the institute. It is one of the most popular destinations due to its warm sunny climate and beautiful beaches. It offers a large range of attractions, including theme parks, golf courses, National Park and shopping facilities. The Gold Coast has a population of over 400,000 people and is only a one hour drive south of the state's capital, Brisbane.

Australians and overseas visitors enjoy the benefits of a stable, democratic Government and a long tradition of multiculturalism. Students from all countries are able to study and travel in a safe environment.
HIAGC is situated in the heart of Surfers Paradise, the Center of the Gold Coast. Surfers Paradise is famous for its golden beaches, a huge choice of sporting and recreational activities and shopping facilities.

Compared to other major cities in Australia, the Gold Coast has a low cost, but high standard of living. The DIMIA suggests students budget for $12,500 per year for living expenses (in addition to school fees).

However, it needs to be noted that living costs will vary from individual to individual depending on personal priorities and life style choices. For more information, please visit : Studyqueensland.
