I have learned to be more independant and more accepting of differences. I was pretty independent and accepting before I studied abroad, but this experience forced me to be so much more. You cannot just call your mom or dad every time you have a problem. You must figure it out on your own for the most part. I have learned so... Nicole D - Temple University View Entire Review
My experience made me fall in love with traveling all over again. I gained so much from it that I am now considering working for a study abroad company myself! Jessica S - Manhattan Christian College View Entire Review
This experience was totally worthwhile! I loved being abroad and seeing another part of the world. It was not all that I expected, which is part of the reason it was worthwhile. Every day was not rainbows and butterflies, but all the experiences made me grow as an independent adult. This abroad trip also reinforced my future pla... Matt J - Berea College View Entire Review

Worth every penny. I never once regretted my time. Any student would do well in Australia because the people are welcoming and caring. The classes were just challenging enough to keep me focused but relaxed enough for me to explore beyond the uni. Because of my experience I am applying for grad school in Australia. Abigail R - Ohio Wesleyan University View Entire Review
The five months I spent abroad were probably the best five months of my life. I gained so much out of studying abroad that it is hard to put it into words. I think that everyone should take the opportunity to study abroad at some point during their college career. You will not be sorry that you did, I promise! Amber M - University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh View Entire Review
I am applying to jobs over in Australia and have the travel bug to go everywhere now. The world is so much bigger then I knew! Courtney H - Texas A&M - College Station View Entire Review
My experience was more than worthwhile. I changed as a person as I became more independent, and open to new experiences. I also share memories with those I met in Australia that will last a lifetime. If I had the opportunity to go again, I would not even think about not going. Jenny D - University of Maryland - College Park View Entire Review
Going through the Education Abroad Network: Study Australia was the best thing ever and I really think it is the only way to go to Australia. They set up so many exciting things and really make sure that you are ready and that you don't miss out on anything. I learned a lot about myself and how to be more independent. I went ... Rachel J - University of Wisconsin - Madison View Entire Review
I believe studying abroad is an experience every college student should partake in. The thought of leaving my friends to travel halfway around the world for four months was something I was a little apprehensive about. I was scared to go because I'm a very shy person but now that I've been am so glad that didn't stop me. Studying... Claire W - Auburn University View Entire Review
Yes! I think my study abroad experience was extremely worthwhile. living and studying a a country give you a different experience than just traveling there. I had time to fully take in a new culture, I built some lasting friendships with Australians, it was cool to see the ways their day to day live varied from America. I feel l... Kailey W - University of Iowa View Entire Review
It was beyond worthwhile. I can not imagine my life without it. I am disappointed that not every student will have the opportunity to see what I have seen and discover themselves the way in which I did. I truely learned how unique each of us is. I am now much more motivated to pursue school and a career that will enable me to ... Andres G - Hamline University View Entire Review
It was so incredibly rewarding. I did more in those four and a half months and did more than I've done in the other 21 years of my life. It was the best four and a half months of my life. Even though I missed my family, it was so cool to be in a country by myself. I learned so much about what I'm capable of and became much more ... Elizabeth d - Simmons College View Entire Review
It has totally changed my cultural awareness... and definitely my future plans. I'm determined to get back there one day. And hopefully, for good. Christopher H - University of Pittsburgh - Bradford View Entire Review
I learned to not be afraid to do things, to travel by myself. I take charge. I'm the fearless girl that I always knew I was, but just never had the chance to break out of my shell until Sydney came along. I will live in either Australia or New Zealand. I knew it from the moment the plane landed in both countries. It has become a... Danielle L - University of Connecticut View Entire Review
My experience was extremely worthwhile and I am dying to go back! Visiting Australia has increased my awareness of cultures worldwide. Sydney is a melting pot of many different cultures and lifestyles that can be enjoyed by all. Emily N - Indiana University/Purdue University at Columbus View Entire Review
My experience abroad was absolutely worthwhile. I learned so much in Australia, both about its culture and people and about myself. This experience has taught me to put myself out there more and not be afraid to try new things. It has also been invaluable in showing me what's important in life. Being abroad has given me a new pe... Julian R - Western Washington University View Entire Review
I wouldn't change a thing. I know i tried my hardest in school while also enjoying as much free time as i could. Kelly G - University of Hartford View Entire Review
My study abroad experience definitely opened me up to new cultures and allowed me to get to know people very different from me. I feel as though I have grown as a person in many ways. I learned that I can live on my own in another country completely across the world. I can adapt to and be successful in new surroundings. My futur...

I thank my experience abroad for pushed me into new experiences allowing me to become more independent, flexible, and cultured! Meredith B - University of New Hampshire View Entire Review
I learned a great deal through studying in Australia. I learned to slow down a little and enjoy life, and I truly gained a different perspective by studying where I was an outsider. I had a very valuable internship where I realized that I would like to continue event planning, public relations and other writing opportunities. Meghan F - Syracuse University View Entire Review

Studying Abroad In Australia With The Education Abroad Network Was A Fantastic Decision!
Studying abroad was the best decision I have made as a college student. It has increased my cultural awareness and independence and it was amazing to be immersed in a foreign culture for an extended period of time. I was able to both study and intern while abroad, and it was fascinating to compare the culture to American culture... Amy L - University of Wisconsin - Madison View Entire Review
My only internship experience on my resume was through my program and school (UNSW) and it was the most valuable experience I have. I got real world training in a global company and was able to work with some of nicest people I've ever met. Even though I worked for free I look back at my time in my internship and it's weird to t... Daniel B - Iowa State University View Entire Review
Studying abroad with The Education Abroad Network was beyond words. Not only did the staff of this program ensure the everything I could think of and more was right at my fingertips, but they were essentially the vessel that helped me grow and change to become the person I am now, just through studying abroad. It may sound sil... Brittney T - Purdue University View Entire Review
I think my experience helped to shape my interests more in travel than anything. I liked living in another culture, even if it was similar the United States. It still had enough differences that it was an adjustment. I had a good time meeting locals as well as international students. It made me want to study abroad again maybe f...
