Past Review Cea Roma!
I have gained a new appreciation and understanding for Italian culture. I didn't know much about Italy coming into this program so I was a little shocked at first. Living in a city as big as Rome is a lot different than what I am used to, and the first two weeks were overwhelming. Now that I am used to it, I don't want to lea... - Providence College View Entire Review

Absolutely. I learned a lot about myself (everyone says that, but it's true) and I saw so many things I (as well as millions of people) have always wanted to see. I experienced life the traditional Italian way; walking or using public transportation everywhere you go, eating later in the day and eating multiple courses, hanging ... - University of California - Santa Barbara View Entire Review
Past Review Independent Rome
Became more independent and was able to deal with language barriers in different countries easier than I would have if I had come straight from America - University of San Diego View Entire Review

Past Review Magic In Rome
Hello! There is a quote I love so much: “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain Coming to live and study in Rome, Ita... - University of San Diego View Entire Review

Learned how to travel well, learned more about myself, another culture, and made some great friends. I hope to have a job someday that allows me to travel and interact with people from all over the world. - Providence College View Entire Review
I made memories for a lifetime! - University of North Carolina - Wilmington View Entire Review
I gained a better sense of the world around me, and learned how to be more independent. I was farther from home than I have ever been in my life, and I had to learn to rely on myself more, instead of leaning on friends or family for support. - Ohio Dominican University View Entire Review
Past Review Rome Is Unreal
Absolutely worthwhile, wouldn't exchange my experience for anything. - Providence College View Entire Review
This experience taught me that to really understand a culture you have to live it. You can't just go abroad and be American. You have to try and immerse yourself as much as possible. On the other hand, you can't be too critical of yourself if you make a mistake. After all you are there temporary and you only have a couple mo... - Oglethorpe University View Entire Review
I understand other cultures and learned how to completely find my way in totally foreign countries. I've learned how to be independent yet appreciate my home life. I loved studying abroad and almost didn't do it. I'm SOOO glad I came abroad because I've met great friends and have many laughs and seen just the most amazing things... - Salve Regina University View Entire Review

A student studying abroad with CEA Global Education: Rome, Italy
As a History major, I cant imagine having studied anywhere else. As I stated in a passage above, just by simply walking the streets I learned so much. It's hard to put into words the knowledge I gained from this semester abroad. I personally feel it not only helped me to advance in my studies, but it also helped me to grow as a ... - Abroad101 University View Entire Review
Very worthwhile - Rollins College View Entire Review
Yes, I loved study abroad. I've learned so much about myself, I traveled almost every weekend, which was great for me and was my goal. I learned a lot about Italian culture, but it's made me dislike the Italians because the way they treat people. I think it definitely changed my future plans and made me want to travel more. - California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo View Entire Review
Yes, I got to live in Rome for 4 months! It was amazing. I had never been to Europe before so I got to travel around and see all these amazing places. I have definitely grown as a person. I have a better appreciation for certain things in life. - University of San Diego View Entire Review
