An experience I wouldn't trade for the world!

February 24, 2024by: Keili Murphy - United StatesProgram: IFSA University of Wollongong Partnership

IFSA provided me the grounds in order to learn how to live independently in Wollongong, Australia. With caring and committed advisors, I felt as though I had a home away from home while being abroad on the other side of the world. This was such a rewarding experience and one I wouldn't trade for the world- I learned so many things about the world, myself, met new friends, took different courses, travelled on my own to different parts of Australia and none of that would be possible without the guidance of IFSA.

Best semester ever!

From the pre-departure materials, to the transition events, my semester in Australia through IFSA was very well-organized and well-thought out. I never feared not having enough information and felt very comfortable with whatever I was doing.
