On weekends, enjoy sharing free time with your new friends or homestay family, venturing out to charming towns like Bowral or vibrant coastal cities like Newcastle to experience local markets, beaches, and cultural festivals.

Program Highlights

  • Immerse yourself in the Australian way of life by taking classes alongside local high school students in a wide range of subjects.

Most Amazing Experience!

Spending my junior year of high school as a foreign exchange student in Australia was the best decision I ever made! I made so many amazing new friends in my 10 months going to school and experiencing the daily life of an Australian teenager. My host family is now considered my family. My host sister even came to visit me for two months this summer! The things I learned, experiences I had, and the friendships I made while Down Under will stay with me the rest of my life!

What would you improve about this program?
I wouldn't change anything! They do such a good job of preparing you for what to expect while abroad and support you through every step!
