Eva Jean Kough, Fall 2015 Participant
It was wild experiencing places, people, and cultures I didn't know existed before leaving the United States. My favorite part was experiencing the Earth in ways not possible in Kansas. There were so many things to see (mostly for free), and so many things to do outside all the time.

Mariah Elizabeth Chemali, Fall 2018 Participant
I learned that you have to do a lot on your own. It is a time where you have to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. Their academic curriculum may be easier than KU's but you can not slack off because every letter grade goes on your transcript. Stay on campus so you don't have to rely on the buses, also great way to meet a lot of people.

My fondest memories from my time abroad are all with the people I met. They were what made the trip memorable and they are one of the main reasons I want to go back to Wollongong in the future.
