"Visiting the Australian Zoo was one of the best parts of the trip! Getting to see Australia’s unique wildlife up close was an unforgettable experience that made me appreciate the country’s culture and nature even more. I would encourage anyone to take this opportunity because it’s a chance to learn, explore, and make memories you’ll never forget. "

"What an insane experience! Studying abroad in Australia is more than an opportunity to see a new country, but the chance to gain new perspectives and experience wildlife and cultures firsthand. I returned home with more memories, friends, and experiences than I left with."

"What stands out most to me from this experience was how much I learned while working in the lab at the animal hospital. Being able to get hands-on experience and see what I learned in class applied to real animals made the course especially meaningful. As well as giving me a better understanding of Zoology."

"Every moment I spent at the Wildlife Hospital attached to the Australia Zoo was incredible. My dream is to be a wildlife veterinarian, so it was beyond amazing to get a glimpse into practical possibilities in that field. This trip opened my eyes to the possibilities my future can truly expand out towards. Communicating with people with diverse experiences and pathways can provide new perspectives of how your career can go on very different direction than you previously thought possible."
