Program Reviews:
Spring 2023 Participant
I learned that opening a bank account in the host country is helpful, especially in avoiding fees that you may encounter if a card has foreign transaction fees. I also learned that there are many affordable travel experiences, especially if you meet people to go on trips with and can split costs. Furthermore, I also advise to not be afraid to reach out to teaching staff, as they do want to help you succeed academically.

Learn to study! UoW puts most of the learning responsibility on you as a student, and their grading system is strict. You'll have to spend significant time at the library, and likely won't be able to breeze through classes.

Spring 2025 Participant
One of the most helpful things I learned on this program is the importance of staying open-minded and adaptable. Things won’t always go as planned when you’re in a new environment, but being flexible and willing to embrace change makes the experience much more enjoyable. I also learned how to manage my time effectively while balancing schoolwork and travel, which is a skill future students will definitely benefit from. Most importantly, I discovered that stepping out of your comfort zone leads to the most meaningful growth.
