The year-round tropical climate isn't bad either! Bond University is unique among Australian universities in that its academic calendar aligns with the US university calendar. You will experience:
* Small class sizes - the student to faculty ratio is 11:1. Amazing!
* Cutting-edge courses - Bond University received 5 out of 5 stars in Australia's Good Universities Guide for quality of teaching. Courses use the newest technology, and professors think outside the box.
* A surfer's paradise - The Gold Coast has some of the best surfing in the world, and the weather is warm and sunny year-round.
* Olympic-size pool and state-of-the-art gym on campus - The sports facilities on campus include these and more. You can even get a free consultation with a personal trainer.
* 6-day CISabroad Great Barrier Reef Culture and Adventure Program - When you arrive in Australia, we'll give you a great orientation to the Great Barrier Reef and beyond. Less
This experience has been great with meeting new people and seeing many new places. The campus is beautiful and everyone is very friendly and nice. Read more
Surfers paradise is a little more uptight than a real "surfers paradise" should be. Pants are required which was annoying. I suggest the bars instead. Read more
Studying abroad was the best decision I ever made and the best experience of my life. I'm sad to be home and I plan to go back. I met the most amazing people in such a beautiful place. I don't think my eyes can handle all the beautiful places I was able to visit there. It seems unreal. The whole experience ended too soon for my liking. Read more
Bond Uni was a blast but it is very international and it tends to be a bit harder to make Aussie friends. Gold Coast is an awesome place with amazing surf. Read more
Living in the Gold Coast wad the best decision I made when making my decision about where to study in Australia. I have traveled to a few major cities that i would have had the opportunity to study in had i not chosen Bond Uni. Melbourne and Sydney are all beautiful, great cities to visit. If you enjoy the beach lifestyle ( in my opinion the most beautiful beaches in AUS) mixed in with the fun of being near a big city (Surfers Paradise) I highly ... Read more
Australia was incredible. I just wish that we were told about how the weather actually was here during the time that we came it literally rained for a straight month. The classes at Bond University are much harder than my school back in the states. There are only a few grades other than mid terms and the final. For most classes you have to pass the final to pass the class, and it doesn't matter if you are passing the class before you take the fi... Read more
Sydney was fun but I would have liked to fly into cairns and do that for a few days before we headed to campus Read more

I had a lot of fun in Australia and met a lot of cool people. CIS abroad did a good job with keeping everyone in my program together. This made us all really close and we still keep in touch with one another. Overall, Australia was great, the course work was decent, and it is definitely one of the best experiences ever to occur in my life. Read more

Almost every building on campus seems like it has been built in the past decade. From the new library to the outside swimming pool, there are state-of-the-art facilities everywhere you look! It's so easy to get downtown since the local buses buses stop right outside of campus, or if you want to go by foot the beach is about the 20-30 minute walk. The biggest knok on this program is that there are tons of American sstudents on campus or you won't ... Read more

I loved studying abroad in Australia and I am so happy I chose to study here. However I think I would have liked studying in a place such as Sydney because of how cultural the city is. Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbor Bridge etc.. The Gold Coast is one big party basically, which is awesome, but I feel that you really get the "Wow I'm actually in Australia right now" feeling when you are in Sydney, not the Gold Coast. Bond University is an amazin... Read more
did'nt go out to eat much i was too broke but the clubs were really fun. East in broad beach of thursday nights was insane for ladies. It is ladies night so free entry, free champagne until it runs out then free spirits at midnight. Great place to have fun, be social, get drunk and dance with friends. Read more
