Study Abroad with CIEE
"Of course!! couldn't have gotten this experience anywhere else."
Ali S Pennsylvania State University - University Park
"Absolutely! I learned so much about Korea and other nationalities (being mixed with a large international crowd). It has opened my awareness and I honestly would love to go back to Korea one day!"
Gayle T University of Pittsburgh - Greensburg
"Yes, overall it was a good experience. Although I was not completely satisfied with the living situation or the interaction with local students, I still learned a lot and improved my Spanish. "
Hilary W Indiana University - Bloomington
"My experience abroad was life changing. I recommend it to anyone who wants to gain international experience or even someone who wants to learn more about yourself. I understand more about what I can handle, how to make independent decisions, and how to interact successfully with people from another culture. It was eye-opening an..."
Emmalee B University of Iowa
"It grounded all of the studies that I have done, and gave me some ideas about what I want to do in the future, too! I stay in touch with several friends and cannot wait to go back!"
Morgan B Grinnell College
"Before my time abroad, I was looking at living a pretty domestic life (USA). Now, I'm planning on attending graduate school in the Middle East; I absolutely cannot wait to return to the region."
Abby B George Washington University
"I saw great and new aspects of family life and a social norm unlike the typical suburban culture found in america. I have always loved to travel and I admit studying abroad was a great excuse for me to visit over 7 new countries and locations. This summer I will be applying to mostly interships out of the country. "
Bret K Purdue University
"Yes, my language skills improved, along with a lot of personal growth. Became more flexible, confident, increased cultural awareness."
Tess A Hope College
"Yes, great people, great language program, great time"
Michael D Miami University of Ohio
"My main goal was to learn the language and become fluent in it. Having achieved this, I am content with my study abroad experience, despite the obstacles I faced. Also, traveling to other parts of Europe was incredible, and I will never forget it."
GaHye K Wellesley College
"YES!"
Tara B Indiana University - Bloomington
"So worth it!!! I'm almost fluent in conversational Spanish, and I appreciate Spanish culture so much more. I loved everything about it!"
Jaclyn R The University of Texas at Austin
"YES! I learned to speak French confidently; I am nearly fluent now. I did not take French in college because I placed out of our requirement, and I felt that CIEE's program helped me to reconnect with this language and culture. I learned so much beyond the classroom as well. I now feel confident that I can get along with any..."
Alice L Washington & Lee University
"It was worthwhile because I learned so much about the world, and it opened my eyes to the issues that face every country, and every city all over the world. Paris is not exempt from cultural tension and racism, and this dichotomy between the immigrants and the Parisians can be overwhelming. I certainly learned a lot, and, in fac..."
Susanna M University of Colorado - Boulder
"yes"
Bob R The University of Texas at Austin
"This program changed my life. it sounds cliche, but I am not the same girl who initially boarded the plane to Japan. It brought new life to my textbooks and language lessons, and made me far more confident in my language skills. It was worth every penny, every stress-filed night, and every road-bump along the way. "
Amanda B Indiana University/Purdue University at Columbus
"Personal development and learning, exposer to new culture, countless new friends and experiences "

Lindsey H University of Vermont
"as stated in previous box!"
Claire M University of Oklahoma
"After this experience abroad, I plan to continue my graduate studies in Spain. I learned that not all individuals work to live like we do in the United States and Catalonians truly know how to enjoy life to the fullest. "
A student
"This was the greatest experience of my life. I learned so much about their culture as was welcomed into their own culture with open arms. This hospitality has shown me a lot about life and has given me new perspective on how to live my own. Going abroad also makes the world less intimidating and gives me a brighter out look on ..."
Christina S Santa Clara University
"I am much more culturally sensitive. And I now hate airplanes. BUT I'm glad I did it and I'm very happy with CIEE. I wish I had a better time with advising for abroad. I'm glad I choose CIEE but I feel like my abroad advisor gave me ZERO support while I was here and before I came here. The class I took was PERFECT, but my univer..."
Cassie W University of the Pacific
"Absolutely. I gained independence, confidence to speak Spanish and a great knowledge of the world. I loved this program so much that after graduation I went back to Sevilla through CIEE's Teach in Spain program."
