High School Study Abroad in Australia

The world’s only country which is also its own continent, Australia is widely regarded both for its immense natural beauty and the high quality of life enjoyed by its citizens. Embarking on a high school program in Australia will give you a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the Aussie way of life, while learning all about the history of the region and embarking on exciting outings to such destinations as the Outback, Fraser Island, and Great Barrier Reef (not to mention kangaroo selfies!!!). Are you ready for an adventure served upside-down-unda?

Best vet program I have ever joined. The entiee social space and support was overwhelmingly wonderful. My favorite activity was actually the necropsy because it gave me a better sense of working hands-on. All of the staff made my experience so special!

A Guide to High School Programs in Australia

Best Cities for Teens

Australia is the world’s sixth largest country and its third least densely populated, largely due to the vast untapped wilderness of the Outback which spans the interior of the country. Most cities where you might embark to for a high school program in Australia are located along the country’s expansive eastern coastline. While Australia is its own continent, the broader region of Oceania encompasses nearby countries such as New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and the Solomon Islands, as well.

Sydney, the country’s largest city and major hub of global, commercial, and cultural activity, is usually the most popular destination where to embark on a high school program in Australia. Melbourne, the country’s second most populous city and widely acclaimed as one of the most livable places on earth, is another great destination to look into high school programs in Australia.

Beyond these two major cities, other cities such as Brisbane, Canberra, and Perth also can offer very enriching environments for a high school program abroad in Australia. Many programs will also travel frequently throughout the country rather than stay rooted in one location, which is a good option for students who want to see as much of the continent as possible during their time abroad.
