Study Abroad with CIEE
"I learned a lot about myself, what career trajectory I want to go down, and intercultural skills. It was definitely worthwhile. "
Dustin Lee Brandeis University
"Definitely worthwhile! Gained greater confidence and independence while immersing myself in a different culture which taught me a lot about my own. "
Danielle Laverdiere Middlebury College
"I learned how to be adaptive and culturally aware. Furthermore, I learned patience. It was some of the best lessons of my life. "
Rachel Dovek Brandeis University
"I gained a new self of my self. A sense of independence. It was the greatest adventure of my life so far and I feel like I really found who I was. "
Lex Scott Middlebury College
"It was so worthwhile. I got a very different perspective, not just on America, and living abroad, and the work culture at my home school, but also on myself and what is important to me. As much as Japanese culture excepts conformity, Tokyo as a city somehow forces you to be yourself by finding the pieces of it that make you ha..."
A Wellesley College
"I learned my independence and gained memories that will change my life forever. I've made great friends and even great networking connections. I'd do it all over again if I could."
Shanique Reid University of Hartford
"I made lasting friendships, learned a lot from local students. It was absolutely worthwhile because South Africa is an amazing country. "
Natalia Marques Wellesley College
"travel as much as possible"
A student Brandeis University
"In my program, I was surrounded by American students from all around the states. This reminded me that there are people who have drastically different ways of life than me--people who don't necessarily value the same things that I and my peers at Brandeis do. It was disappointing, and eye opening, to hear the harmful things comi..."
A student Brandeis University
"A more international perspective and cultural versatility"
Elijah Farrales Truman State University
"I learned more from my experiences traveling and visiting clinics and hospitals than I did in any of my classes. I had to function independently and cook my own meals and learn how to use public transportation. I think it would've been a lot easier with more help and preparation from the program staff, but I definitely grew a lo..."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about the experiences of other students around the world and of life in Spain. Definitely worthwhile."
A student Wellesley College
"How to feel comfortable with a completely different culture, was worthwhile"
A student Brandeis University
"I learned how to be more independent. Also, it allowed me to experience how it feels to live in a busy city. Therefore, I would say my experience abroad was worthwhile. "
A student Brandeis University
"I was able to work on my academic Spanish as well as learn what its like to live in a European city. "
Natalia Gonzalez Brandeis University
"Since I am Ghanaian, I was able to reconnect with my country after being away for almost two decades. Although there times when I felt like a guest in my home, there were plenty of times where I felt at home and grateful to CIEE for having a program site in Ghana. I learned that there is no and never will be a place like home. I..."
Vennesa Duodu Brandeis University
"I wish I had been forced to speak Spanish and not hang out with Americans. "
Noah H Brandeis University
"I learned about how big the world is, I improved my Spanish skills, and I got to travel to some neat places. Definitely worthwhile."
A student Truman State University
"I gained an understanding of culture, language, and my own independence."
A student Berea College
"The experience was worthwhile and the exchange rate made it an affordable option in comparison to a lot of programs in Europe"
A student Wellesley College
"I learned that there are no many differences in culture. I also learned that programs not in the US were very rigorous. It was very worthwhile because I loved my time there. "
A student Wellesley College
"Independence, a sense of self, a home base to travel all over Central Europe, tons of lifelong friends... I really could go on."
Rebecca Duras Middlebury College
"I learned adaptability, patience, and acceptance. It was truly a humbling experience and I recommend it to anyone that wants to travel abroad. It also taught me a lot about myself, and let me meet so many new people. "
Natalie Bautista University of the Pacific
"It was immensely worthwhile. I learned so much about myself in being forced to adapt to a totally different lifestyle and culture, as well as being mainly deprived of my first language. Furthermore I travelled extensively and from that not only saw 8 other countries but learned about my own competence and independence. "
Sarah Jenkins University of the Pacific
"I learned more patience and I believe it was worthwhile."
