yes would have liked to go to a different city in New Zealand though Jenny X - University of Wisconsin - Stout View Entire Review
It helped me to see another culture from a different perspective. As a tourist,you see one view, but as a student you get to understand more a local sense. Kobey T - University of Hawaii - Manoa View Entire Review
I just want to do more because I now know what's possible. I want to learn, i want to teach, I want to have fun, I want to work, I want to meet people, I want to spend time with the people I know. Kyleena L - University of Hawaii - Manoa View Entire Review
Academically it was good and enlightening. But meeting that many internationals and getting a better view of your place in the world was really what it this turned out to be about. And that's what I got. Euro trip in a few years to visit all those friends is going to be epic! Anthony G - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
It was worthwhile. It taught me how to be independent, self sufficient, and more outgoing with different kinds of people. Sarah S - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
Living in an apartment where everyone is in the same situation. Lauren P - University of Oregon View Entire Review
YES. I loved it!!! I discovered what I want to study in grad school/do for the rest of my life, I am planning on going back to NZ for a postdoc or a permanent job. Learning Maori was eye-opening, the culture is so different and there are many concepts you cannot understand except in Maori. Sarah G - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
Absolutely. Paul C - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
More than worthwhile academically because research at Otago Uni is renowned and lecturers are awesome! I plan to live in New Zealand one day because of this abroad experience. Arely S - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
It was very relaxing and I did a lot of cool things. It was a unique experience that I'll probably never have an opportunity to do again. that being said, I am glad to be back home this semester. BenStrauss - Tufts University View Entire Review
