Study Abroad with CIEE
"It was the best semester i had for so many other reasons than school. I learned so much about myself and the world outside of my US bubble. IT was so worthwhile and I remember and treasure it forever!"
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"My Spanish did improve a lot, much more than if I had just stayed at my home university. I learned a lot about myself and what I am capable of. I became so much more independent and gained a deeper appreciation for another way of life. If I had the chance to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. "
A student Fordham University

"I gained a deeper understanding of myself, my privilege, and my relationship to materialism. I began to grasp the complexity and difficulty of understanding and participating in a foreign culture. I also better understand the problems and benefits of service abroad. The experience was fully worthwhile"
A student Fordham University
"It was very worthwhile. I gained a lot, not only academic knowledge from campus, but how to deal with cultural differences and connecting with people from drastically different backgrounds. I cannot possibly list everything I've learned but it consisted of valuable lessons about adaptability, open-mindedness, and risk-taking. "
A student Fordham University

"YES. It helped me become more independent. I made friends from different parts of the US that I actually plan to go visit this summer.

"I gained so much from studying in Barcelona. I was able to apply all that I have learned, as well as what I continued to learn in Barcelona in my day to day activities.
