I gained so much from this trip, from experiences I never thought were possible and friends from all over the world. I was able to climb the Sydney Harbor Bridge, swim at the Great Barrier Reef and go white water rafting at the Tully River. My program was focused directly along the curriculum I am studying at Michigan State and ... Melissa L - Michigan State University View Entire Review

I learned a lot about myself. The program allowed me to see things about myself that I never knew existed before. I changed. I evolved. Personal growth has become a priority to me. Cory O - University of Nebraska- Lincoln View Entire Review
Going abroad in general is one of the most worthwhile experiences to have. Not only do you learn independence but you get the opportunity to explore places you never thought you would ever go. Australia was exactly that. At the complete other side of the world, I was terrified of going somewhere where I could't even contact fami...

Living abroad taught me to live independently, budget my money, cook some delicious meals, and to no get wifed up it's not worth it! A student - University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa View Entire Review
My study abroad experience in Australia was truly unforgettable. I saw the most beautiful places, ate delicious food, explored so many different areas, met a ton of influential people, learned about different governments, etc. I gained a greater sense of independence and a greater understanding of how I feel about the importance... Hillary M - University of Wisconsin - Madison View Entire Review
I learned a lot about living alone and being put into a situation where I had to meet new people and make new friends. I was no longer an hour or 2 away from my family but a whole day and I was forced to take matters into my own hands and figure out situations on my own. It was incredibly worthwhile. MAYA M - University of Michigan - Ann Arbor View Entire Review
I could not have asked for a better semester in Sydney. I made lifelong friends, traveled around Australia, Thailand, and New Zealand, and explored Sydney as much as I could during the semester. I learned about myself, a culture different from my own, and the amazing people in Australia. I cannot wait until I get the chance to v...

Looking back at the 4.5 months that I was abroad, I could actually pin point the time that period that I really started to transform and grow. It was after a 10 day trip up to Cairns, I started hiking every weekend, and adapted to a healthy life style. I was more energetic, constantly going to new places and seeing new things, a...

I can honestly say it was the most remarkable and unforgettable four months of my life. The opportunity to live in a foreign country and travel is not something everyone has the opportunity to do. The experience opened my eyes to a world around me that I did not know existed. Living in Australia made me grow as a person and prov... Allie W - Syracuse University View Entire Review

I learned more about myself than I thought possible. I changed my career path. I came into my own. I fell in love with the world all over again. A student - Ohio State University - Columbus View Entire Review
Studying abroad showed me what actually living and experiencing a country was. I had traveled to a lot of places around the world, including Australia, before studying abroad, but I had never stayed in a place for more than a week. Being immersed in the culture of Australia was a unique experience that I've never had while trave... A student - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
It was definitely a worthwhile experience. You make tons of new friends and learn tons about the culture of the country. It was a perfect amount of time to learn about Australian lifestyle and you get college credit on top of it! Erin A - Rutgers University - New Brunswick/Piscataway View Entire Review
It was more than worth it! I gained more in 5 weeks then I have throughout my whole life of schooling. Not only did I learn about wildlife and culture, but I gained a better perspective about life and taking things one day at a time. Life is full of endless possibilities, but if you put your mind to it, you will achieve them. Th... Renee C - Delaware Valley College View Entire Review
I was able to gain an experience unlike any other. I have never lived so far away from home, and I found that there were so many other people doing what I did. I made such strong friendships, and experienced things I never thought I would do (like skydiving!!!!). I traveled to Thailand, New Zealand, Fiji, and other cities in Aus...

Being abroad opened my eyes to different cultures. I've always lived in the United States, always in Texas, and people here are very different compared to those in Australia. It was a completely worthwhile experience. tory.haddix - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
