Program Reviews:
Spring 2024 Participant
The grading system in Australia is very different than at KU. This was probably one of the most surprising aspects. Being in a new place is so fun for many reasons, however, I definitely had to learn how to balance travel and sightseeing with academics!

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.

Spring 2025 Participant
The most rewarding elements of the program were the opportunities for personal growth and cultural immersion. Being able to step outside of my comfort zone, meet people from around the world, and adapt to new environments taught me valuable life skills that I will carry with me long after the program ends. I also found it incredibly fulfilling to balance academic responsibilities with the freedom to travel and explore, which made my learning experience both meaningful and memorable.
