Overall Experience
I found that I learned to be more adaptable to others and also to be more confident in unfamiliar situations. It is better to try something new than to never take the first step at all. - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned alot of things abroad, not only did I gain friendships I will keep with me forever but I gained the skills to adapt to new diverse cultures. - Providence College View Entire Review
A student studying abroad with CEA: Rome, Italy
I learned a lot about adaptability. It was my first time sharing a bedroom, living with more than one girl, and being in another country other than Canada and the U.S. I learned how to best adapt to the local culture as well. You believe that you will immediately be immersed in the language and culture once you arrive here, but ... - Grand Valley State University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about the European culture, how to adapt myself to any type of situations and to step outside of my comfort zone to have a better experience. - York College of Pennsylvania View Entire Review
Past Review Cea Rome
I have had a great time while in Rome. I had no idea what I was getting into when I got here, but CEA Rome was a small, American program that genuinely cared about our time and experience in Italy. I enjoyed the small classes, like at my home institution, with other American students, so we were all on the same page and not lost... - Providence College View Entire Review
Learned a lot about many countries and gained valuable experience that I would not gain if I did not go. Extremely worthwhile. - Providence College View Entire Review
A student studying abroad with CEA Global Education: Rome, Italy
I learned how to travel on my own and overcome obstacles that I had no control over. I matured and I think I can handle anything now! - Providence College View Entire Review
Living in Rome for four months is a chapter in my life that I won't ever forget! I enjoyed being able to experience the culture and people first hand: the best art and food truly do live here. If you are looking to do a lot of traveling, Rome is a great place to be! The FCO airport is an international center and it is easy to fi... - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Amazing
It was a once in a lifetime trip. If I could do it all over again I would - Providence College View Entire Review
First of all, Rome is in a perfect location for traveling all through europe, and every place we went seemed to be better than the last because everything was so new to our eyes. Italy offers the same diversity, every region we went was different than the last. I expanded and understood my faith, especially being in Rome while t... - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Surreal
It was extremely worthwhile. I did not think I would ever get the chance to study abroad. I still cannot believe that I actually lived in Rome for 4 months and got to visit 8 countries and 8 different places in Italy. This whole experience was just so awesome. I definitely gained a better sense of direction and a more confid... - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned about new food, traveling, reading maps, communicating with foreigners, being more independent, living without a cell phone (for the most part) and finding WiFi in all available places! Completely worthwhile. - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned how to emerse myself in a different culure and how important it is to travel and to see the world. It was the best investment I have ever made. - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself, patience, and how to get along with people from all over the world. - University of Tennessee - Knoxville View Entire Review
I learned the different aspects of Italian culture, I learned to appreciate the language more, and I look forward to using what I've learned here for when I come back in the future! - Providence College View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile, I enjoyed every minute of my abroad experience. You amaze yourself that you're able to live on your own in a foreign country without knowing the native language for months. - University of Arizona View Entire Review
Past Review Roman Adventures
Where do I begin? Rome itself is an education. The city is filled with history from the Roman Empire to modern day. Every corner is marked with an ancient ruin and it couples well with the modern Italian culture. The classes at CEA Rome were solid and not overly challenging. I learned quite a bit from the classes about Italy and... - Providence College View Entire Review
It was definitely a worthwhile experience! I improved my Italian speaking skills and learned a lot about the culture here. - University of San Diego View Entire Review
I learned how the Italian culture lives, and how different it truly is. It was worthwhile both in that I gained knowledge in what Americans do better, while I also gained an appreciation for the things that we have in the United States. - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned how small my own bubble at home was and it made me want to explore my own country - Providence College View Entire Review
I grew as a person. became more confident. - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Rome'n Around
I absolutely LOVED studying abroad, one of the best experiences I've had thus far in my college career. Traveling truly opens your mind to the world around you/makes you a better person. TOTALLY worthwhile. - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Great Experience
Learned a lot about different cultures and met lifelong friends. - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Roman Holiday
I learned a lot about the way other cultures live. It is very different from America and it is important to try to immerse yourself in the Italian culture as much as possible. You won't feel truly comfortable living in Italy unless you adapt to some of their customs. Other than living in Rome, I traveled with friends around Euro... - Providence College View Entire Review
Past Review Unforgettable
Very worthwhile. Everyone should experience it. - Providence College View Entire Review
