It was absolutely worthwhile! I gained confidence in my ability to travel and live on my own! Cassidy Yates - University of New Hampshire View Entire Review
My whole experience was amazing. From the friends I made, to my Spring break trip to Indonesia, to the volcano I climbed, to the beaches, to the sunsets and sunrises, to the traveling, to the different foods I ate and so much more.

I gained a different insight about other cultures and my own culture. I became very open-minded and accepting of others.

It was absolutely worthwhile!! I gained long-term international friendships, I learned more about myself which allowed me to grow, and I learned and got to appreciate a different culture in depth. A student - University of New Hampshire View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself. It was the first time I was entirely on my own ever, and that initial isolation from close family & friends was terrifying. But because of that, I became a stronger person and my values & belief in myself is more solid than it ever has been. I love the person I became after study abroad!

I learned that I can get outside of my comfort zone and have an awesome time. Australia in general is an amazing place with even better people. TEAN as a program were super hands on in the best ways. They were there when I needed them but didn't overwhelm me at all. Jaclyn V - College of Charleston View Entire Review
I learned that I can survive on my own and that my future opportunities are not just in America, they are anywhere in the world I want to go.

About
The University of Newcastle is a great fit for students seeking the perks of a mid-sized city, amazing opportunities for outdoor exploration, and an engaging learning environment. Newcastle is located just two hours from Sydney and a short distance from the Lower Hunter Valley, a region famous for its wineries and sprawling national parks. Participants will challenge themselves in the classroom while benefiting from a wide variety of course offerings and exploring a city that features five kilometers of waterfront attractions. Prior to settling in, see the Great Barrier Reef with TEAN's 5-day Orientation Excursion based in Cairns. Even though it may be hard to tear yourself away from the laidback lifestyle of Newcastle, you may also want to consider seeking adventure elsewhere with one of our semester break trips to exotic Thailand or the South Island of New Zealand.
