I saw everything from art to society to day to day living from new perspectives. That was extremely valuable. Alison T - Kansas City Art Institute View Entire Review
Studying abroad was very worthwhile for me. It taught me that I could live on my own and how. It made me more self-reliant and confident. It opened my eyes to another part of the world and way of living I could never have imagined until I got there. It taught me to be more aware of my surroundings. I learned how much I value the...

So much about myself, other cultures and the area. Very worthwhile Katherine H - Austin College View Entire Review
ABSOLUTELY. I'm moving back there as soon as I graduate to live for the next 2-3 years. My time there was filled with many many challenges, but I Margaret W - Towson University View Entire Review
I was able to completely experience the life of a typical Australian.

You really have to be outgoing and immerse yourself in order to make friends. Luckily for me, my classes were small and interactive... Vicky W - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
Best experience of my life Ashley H - University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse View Entire Review
Going to Tasmania was a huge learning experience for me. I really was able to come out of my shell and do so many things I never thought I would do. I feel like I've grown as a person, gained a better appreciation of different cultures, and really learned that I am strong and independent, and can adapt to any environment I end u...

I have learned so much about the Australian Culture and loved everything about it! Australia is such a beautiful place with amazing and laid-back people. I can't wait to go back and visit one day! While there, I discovered my hopes for the future and realized how much I want to travel the world and experience new cultures. I hig... Carli G - University of Hawaii - Manoa View Entire Review
