Study Abroad with CIEE
"I learned so much about people. Since there were students from all over the country, it was interesting to see how we all interacted and communicated. I also learned a lot about my low, and Spanish culture. "
Regan Charie Brandeis University
"I learned that we live in a globalised society, that colonialism is still happening and its effects are devastating. I learned how different economies, systems of education and political structures function. I was very worthwhile and I'm so glad I went. "

"I learned about many different cultures and it was very worthwhile."
A student Brandeis University
"It opened my mind to other lifestyles."
Shawna Dunham Wellesley College
"I got to write a lot of music because I was so annoyed with how the program was run. I was staying with old people an hour out of paris in a particularly uninteresting part of France and had nothing to do, so I wrote a lot on my own. "
A student Trinity University
"I have expressed many positive thoughts about studying abroad. As of this review, I have graduated from my home university and decided to enroll in one more semester abroad outside of my home university and host program. Therefore, yes, my experience studying abroad is more than worthwhile--it is a memory I will carry with me ..."

"Language, friends, confidence, perspective"
A student Wellesley College
"I learned how to handle uncomfortable situations. For example, while I was traveling, I got lost in Vienna for two hours. I did not have cellular data (which unfortunately we rely so much on in this generation), so there were moments like that where I was forced to figure it out and navigate, and ask people for help when I was c..."

"It was the best five months of my life. I highly recommend it"
Claudia Roldan Brandeis University
"I've never been outside of the US before and I honestly believe that there wasn't a better place for me to visit. Japan is a beautiful country with kind people.

"I learned about Dutch culture. It was great."
A student Brandeis University
"I gained a better understand of Japanese culture and language, through cultural activities, bonding with my host family, and exploring the country. It was definitely a worthwhile experience."
Mira P Brandeis University
"I honestly do not have enough words to articulate everything that I learned while abroad. It touched me on both a spiritual and individual level. I had to be alone in a country for 4 months and figure it out. I had to figure me out in order to survive. I use the word survive because instinctually as human beings, we respond to o..."
Keturah Walker Brandeis University

A student Brandeis University
"My ability to speak Spanish has improved and I had a wonderful time living in and exploring Madrid. It is a beautiful city and the people are very welcoming and friendly. Traveling around Spain was a pleasure. I would recommend it to anyone. Madrid is a brilliant city to spend a semester in. I had a great time ad felt like I..."

Robert wood Middlebury College
"I cannot express how grateful I am to have met so many close and life long friends that I have on this trip as well as been given the chance to have uncountable amazing and enlightening experiences in Prague as well as other countries in Europe. It was something that I have never done before and which depended completely on me t..."

A student Brandeis University
