My semester abroad at Murdoch University through AIFS was by far my favorite semester of college. I took two exercise science courses and did a research internship. I loved the program and getting to live on campus, meet other international students, and explore Australia. AIFS really helped me every step of the way and I am so happy that I chose them as a program provider. I spent the semester going to classes, hanging out at the beach, exploring Perth, and traveling around the west coast. Overall this program was amazing and I can't recommend it enough!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?

A group of friends and I decided to go skydiving over Rottnest Island. This was an amazing experience and a great way to bond with friends abroad.

Pros

Housing is close to campus
Living near amazing beaches
Planned group events every month

Cons

No onsite AIFS, but there was Murdoch University support
More expensive than some other programs
Campus is not centrally located to the city, you must take public transit
