Study Abroad with WorldStrides
"I learned an entire different culture from my own. It was so worthwhile to immerse myself in a country I had little knowledge about before getting on the plane. I learned that the world is greater and more knowledgeable than microscopic piece of it that we live in. I was able to make lifelong friends I would have never made had..."
Shannon Barbour Whittier College
"I found it incredibly valuable to attain a wider worldview outside of the sometimes limited one that American media offers; it gives you a chance to step back and view from a difference perspective. The cultural differences too were fascinating to note once you picked up on subtle nuances and understood the general values. Anoth..."
Jessica Wahl Quinnipiac University
"This experience was incredibly worthwhile. I learned to appreciate and understand that people in different parts of the world do things differently than we do in the US, and just because it's different doesn't mean it's wrong. I really grew as a person and gained an incredible amount of cultural intelligence that I could not hav..."
Lucy Witchell University of Wisconsin - Madison
"I learned more about myself during my study abroad experience than I ever thought I would. I learned that the world is so vast, and there is so much to experience and learn, and you can only do that if you put yourself out there. I would say that my biggest takeaway from abroad is to not hesitate, don't question, and don't waste..."
Rachel Gordon University of Michigan - Ann Arbor
"Gold Coast will always hold a special place in my heart. The campus is gorgeous and the professors are so great! "
Maria DesRochers University of Tampa
"Worthwhile is an understatement when describing my time abroad. Although it may sound cliche, I absolutely feel like I grew and changed as a person during my time abroad. I came back to the US more confident, cultured, and with a new outlook on life. Traveling through TEAN allowed me to make friends, see incredible sights, and m..."
Sarah University of New Hampshire
"I gained confidence in talking to new people and trying new things. So far this was the best experience of my life."
Jasmine Truman State University
"I made Italian friends, learned Italian, visited 4 different countries, tried new foods, learned and experienced history, saw Renaissance and Classical art every day, and made memories I cannot replace. It was definitely worthwhile."
Julia Raines University of Tulsa
"Because I did not know any other student on my program before departing, being abroad allowed me to foster a greater sense of independence and self. Through living with (initially) strangers, I better learned to compromise, reason, and work with others. I learned to let go of the small things in order to learn the big things. Go..."
Emily Folse Villanova University
"I gained a better sense of cultural awareness and an understanding of other cultural mindsets. "
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"I gained so many unforgettable memories and friends while I was abroad, but more importantly I learned how to truly make myself happy. I went abroad expecting to create amazing memories (how could you not when in Australia) but what I didn't expect was to learn as much about myself as I did. Prior to studying abroad I was very i..."
Sarah University of Rhode Island
"My abroad experience pushed me in more ways than I thought possible. It pushed me physically-whether through skydiving, bungee jumping, or canyoning, mentally- in class and in my attempts to plan trips and navigate a completely new country- and most significantly, emotionally. Having never previously left the country, studying a..."
Kasie L Stonehill College
"I learned that stepping out your comfort zone will make you a better person. The experience was worthwhile because it gave me the ability to learn about another culture other than my own. I learned so much about people. I also learned that there is such thing as peace. Being back home in New York City and back at school in Conne..."
Samantha White University of Hartford
"There are so many lessons I learned while abroad. Not only were my classes extremely beneficial and fun but I learned about local food, culture, people and even the history of Australia. I learned as much about Sydney as I know about my hometown in Chicago. I learned how to use the bus system alone. I learned how to scuba dive. ..."
A student University of Kentucky
"My experience was nothing short of amazing. I saw the other side of the world which I never thought I’d have the opportunity to do. I felt welcomed by the TEAN staff as well as the locals and I felt safe at the locations booked for us. I would highly recommend for others to take a trip to Australia and study abroad. I have lear..."
Karina Hunstein Stevens Institute of Technology
"My study abroad experience was more than worthwhile! I gained a better insight into the global landscape and was able to spend time in a culture that is very different than my own. Through this, I believe that I am a more well rounded person and can tackle any issue that comes my way with a global perspective in mind."
Monea Kerr Western Washington University
"I got the compromise of living in a city I have always wanted to visit while still getting needed college credits and real-world experience."
Janelle Vickers West Virginia University
"This whole experience has changed my life. As cliché as that sounds, I can say with complete honesty that it is 100% true. Before this trip I had never been out of North America, let alone, away from my family and friends for this long. While there were definitely times where it was tough and I really didn’t want to do this whol..."
Kate D. Michigan State University
"It was very much so worth while I learned so much about myself and I also learned so much about a beautiful culture very different from the culture in the US "
Libby Xavier University
"Being in Australia for 4 months, I was able to see amazing places that I had only ever dreamed of seeing. The Australian culture and lifestyle is so laid back, and the people there are all so friendly. If I could do it all over, I would in a heartbeat."
Jane Innis University of Rhode Island
"The experience was very worthwhile as I was able to learn a lot about who I am and more importantly the country I was in! "
Gabriella G University of Maryland - College Park
"I absolutely loved my 5 month long study abroad experience through TEAN. I lived in the heart of Sydney and studied at UTS. Every day was a new adventure, whether it was walking to Darling Harbour, taking the train to Circular Quay to a) stare at the Opera House or b) take a ferry to Manly Beach or Watsons Bay or c) walk around ..."
Jolie P University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh
"I learned a lot about the Fijian culture, about myself, and about the world."
A student University of Tulsa
"I feel that through TEAN and my time at AUT I grew and learned more about myself-my world than any other period of my life. Going into the experience, I was nervous to travel halfway across the world to a country I had never known anyone to travel to, but I am so happy I made that leap. Between the people I met and the amazing b..."
Connor McGlynn University of Southern California
"I learned so much about travelling and going with the flow. Things don't always turn out perfect but you have to make them work. I gained so much confidence to travel because of my time in Thailand."
