An international perspective and great memories making it worth while A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Extremely worthwhile Chris Bradbury - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I gained so much maturity and independence, and I really feel like I know myself better as a person. I was so happy in Australia and it provoked a lot of thinking about who I want to be and what I want my life to look like. Lindsey Nestor - Vanderbilt University View Entire Review
Very worthwhile, I learned a lot about myself and made some amazing friends. A student - Villanova University View Entire Review
This was the best time of my life. It is great because you get to meet a completely new set of friends from all over the world and learn a lot about a new culture.

Met my girlfriend there so yeah it was worthwhile, but if you want to do something other than party and surf (with the occasional bit of school), go somewhere else. Zach B - Vassar College View Entire Review
