Spring 2020 Participant
The best thing about studying in Newcastle was getting to meet new people, not only from Australia but also other students from around the world studying abroad as well. Every person I met was open and friendly and made me feel welcome.

Madison Leah Irwin, Spring 2018 Participant
I loved the freedom to travel wherever I wanted and I got to meet people along the way who made the experience much more worthwhile.

Cameron Dupont, Fall 2017 Participant
My favorite part of studying abroad in Australia at the University of Newcastle was my living setup and cultural experience. I lived on-campus in the International House and had an absolute blast learning and experiencing the Australian culture in the beautiful city of Newcastle (and different places around Australia) and made lots of life long friends!
