Study Abroad at the University of Sydney
Hear directly from students why USyd is the place to study abroad!
University of Sydney (USyd) is Australia's oldest, and one of its most prestigious, universities. As a member of the Group of Eight, an elite coalition of leading Australian institutions, USyd offers you a range of strong academic courses usually with an Australian perspective.
The University of Sydney Spring Friendly program is the perfect opportunity to study at a world-ranked institution on the northern hemisphere timeline. You will enroll in an intensive course for the first three weeks of the program and three courses during Semester One to earn a full semester of credit - all in time to return home for the start of summer.
Located on the fringe of Sydney's Central Business District, the ivy-covered sandstone buildings of this vibrant and historic institution reflect its colonial heritage, while the modern architecture showcases a high-tech and multicultural direction.
The one thing that I am glad I took advantage of was the pre-planned Arcadia excursions. Not only were these excursions the perfect way for me to explore the Australian culture and land, they were the needed activities for me to form the perfect support system and relationship bonds that will remain life-long friendships. ”
