Adelaide was the best experience I have ever had! Past Review
By Jacqueline M (PSYCHOLOGY., Ohio University) for
University of Adelaide: Adelaide - Direct Enrollment & Exchange
It was more than worthwhile. I'm pretty comfortable in all situations and this stretched my abilities. It was great to be in a new land with different customs while still having the comfort of the same language.

Review Your Program
|
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
The work load was perfect. School was much more independent and more research so I feel as if I retained more of the information I learned. I took four classes, each was only one hour per week with a 1-2 hour seminar for each. |

* Host Country Program Administration
On-site administration of your program |

|
* Housing:
How satisfied were you with your living arrangements? |
Housing was on my own so I moved around a lot. The first place I stayed I found online before i went and the landlord was a joke. The second house I moved to was much better, plus I was more comfortable with being in a foreign country and I knew what to look for. |
| * Food: |
Very international and very fresh. LOVED IT! |

How integrated did you feel with the local culture? |
I would move there. There were festivals all of the time. The people are friendly. There is always something amazing to do. |
