❛Studying at CQUniversity was the best decision I made as an undergraduate and I had the most amazing five months. I really enjoyed all of my classes, they were both interesting and challenging, and the professors were always willing to give me extra help when I needed it. Even outside the classroom I was constantly learning about Australian culture and the country. Living on the student residence allowed me to make friends from all around the world. I would not change anything about the experience I had. I will always encourage others to study abroad and specifically at CQUniversity. TAYLOR POTTEREndicott College, USA
