It is hard to sum up in words the experience that I had abroad. I have realized that there is a feeling of change, the knowledge of self progress, and the urge to continue traveling within myself. Simply stated my experience abroad gave me the opportunity to learn more about myself, my capabilities, and how to trust my own decis... Jasmine J - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I really learned to be an independent person during my time abroad. Living on a budget, planning your own trips, and being half way around the world really helps you grow as a person. I would do it all again in a heartbeat. Aleks T - Lehigh University View Entire Review
I can't even begin to sum up everything I gained from my study abroad experience. It was so, so worthwhile. From meeting new locals, learning about a new culture, and being able to live outside of my comfort zone in such an amazing place, studying abroad in Australia was so eye-opening and really made me grow as a person. The tr... Maddy M - Champlain College View Entire Review

how to become more independent. very worth while A student - University of Hartford View Entire Review
Studying abroad with TEAN has given me an experience that nothing can compare to. I spent a week in Fiji, a place where I would not have had the opportunity to travel to had I not participated in TEAN, and then lived in Australia for four months playing on the beach and eating wedges with sour cream and sweet chili sauce. Nothin... Grace S - University of Michigan - Ann Arbor View Entire Review
I gained experience that I wouldn't have if I stayed in the US at my American school. I gained more than insight and friendships from traveling and meeting international students and hearing other stories from locals my age. Arian V - University of Iowa View Entire Review
I learned how to completely immerse myself in a different city halfway around the world. To live completely on my own whilst learning a new culture. I learned the key to traveling and seeing new things and learning to enjoy every single second of it. A student - University of Rhode Island View Entire Review
I can't even begin to explain the amazing experience I had. I would do everything again in a heart beat. Chelsey I - Indiana University - Bloomington View Entire Review
I matured a lot during my semester abroad because you learn how to survive on your own. You don't have your parents or friends back home to help you if you need help. Made me want to travel the world even more because it was such a great experience. Chris P - Nichols College View Entire Review
There's so much to learn about yourself and the world living in another country. You learn how to use public transportation to get around and travel, you learn to cook and enjoy different foods, you get a new appreciation of different cultures by meeting new people and so much more. My program directors went out of their way to ... A student - University of Tampa View Entire Review
My communication skills have gotten extremely better since I went abroad. I went there knowing one student and can say I have met and interacted with 100s of new people. I have learned to keep an open mind to things that are different. I have done things I never thought were possible and have conquered many of my fears. Shawn S - Nichols College View Entire Review
100% worth every penny. I gained so many good experiences and got to know myself on a totally different level. Abigail E - University of Iowa View Entire Review
I learned how to make friends in an environment where I knew no one and couldn't run home. I learned how to emerge myself in a different but similar culture A student - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I gained so much- from confidence to my view on life- I learned a lot about myself and where I want my life to go. Mike M - Manhattan College View Entire Review
I learned so much and it was definitely worthwhile. I learned how to be on my own and manage things without my parents. I learned a lot about a different country and how things are different culturally, educationally, and socially. I gained a lot of new insight about the world and how different people are all over. Jordan E - University of Dayton View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile. Between the friendships i gained, to being on my own away from my family for 4 months to experiencing the amazing places Australia had to offer, I would go back in a heart beat. A student - University of Iowa View Entire Review
I went on my study abroad trip with the idea that I did not need a life changing experience to happen. I just wanted to see a beautiful place of the world. Somewhere along the way, between navigating foreign cities, trying new foods, making new friends totally out of your comfort zone.... I grew into the person I'm meant to be. ... andrea t - University of Dayton View Entire Review
The Education Abroad Network was a great choice for studying abroad! Whether the most important thing to you is finances, one-on-one advising, emotional support, or additional excursions and activities, TEAN can help your study abroad experience to be one to remember. I learned a lot about myself and about the world. In general,... Miranda M - University of Iowa View Entire Review
I learned how to live on my own and enjoy life way outside of your comfort zone. It was 100% worthwhile, I would not change a thing about my experience and would definitely go again. Janelle K - University of Rhode Island View Entire Review
I learned a great deal about Australian culture as well as history (I took an Australian history class). I feel much more independent, able to adapt to different situations with greater ease, and I gained friends across the world as well as right next door New Jersey. I recommend everyone to study abroad as it was an experience ... Rachel L - University of Maryland - College Park View Entire Review
Absolutely worthwhile. I'm getting excited just writing about it because I want to share my experience with as many people who are interested. I applied to the program and decided I was going with a week, so talk about impulse and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. It was just such a rewarding and eye opening exper...

I learned who I am in this big world. And that I have a lot to learn. I'd do it over again a million times. Kelly D - DePaul University View Entire Review
Going to Australia and living half way across the world taught me to open my eyes and mind to the endless possibilities that the world has to offer. I shared countless experiences of laughter and excitement with friends from all over the world. The lessons I learned in my 4 month period abroad taught me more than any text book...

I learned how to adapt and embrace different cultures, and I gained such a broader perspective on societal mores and attitudes from my friendships, both international and American. Brendan G - University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh View Entire Review
