Study Abroad with CIEE
"The Chinese culture is completely opposite of the American culture so it was great to see the differences and adapt to those differences to try to locally fit in. I learned so much about Chinese people and their traditions it was an amazing experience that made me apply for a summer program in Shanghai this summer so I can expe..."

"My time in South Africa was undoubtedly the best experience of my life. I gained a new perspective not only on South Africa, but on how the rest of the world views my own country. If students enter their study abroad with an open mind and curiosity they will definitely have a similar experience. While abroad I was surrounded by ..."
Lacey N Tulane University
"I learned that traveling and meeting new people is one of the most valuable experiences in life because it forces you to accept and appreciate things that are different from what you know which ultimately makes you a more accepting person. I am now more tolerant of people who come from different backgrounds because I realize tha..."
Jenny M Indiana University - Bloomington
"How different life is played out in different cultures. To see the extremely wealthy and the extremely poor on the same street with their wealth visible in terms of fancy cars or torn clothes. America is a melting pot of different cultures but it is still somewhat segregated in town, but in Shanghai and the rest of the Chinese c..."
Kevin D Bryant University
"Yes. I wish daily I could still be in Spain. I learned that the world has more to offer that my brain can possibly comprehend. I am going back to Spain this summer! My experience taught me that although we are all different, we are still very much the same. However, when you open your eyes past your personal world, there is so m..."

"This was the best decision I've made in my life. It turned my world view upside-down, shook my roots in the best way possible, improved my musicianship, broadened my horizon in every sense, and set the course of my future straight."
Jason W Tulane University
"It was absolutely worthwhile! Mostly because I not only learned more about the world and different cultures but also more about myself and where I fit into the big picture."
Graceanne S Trinity University
"I am very interested in Latin America and Brazil is the richest and largest country of Latin America. It goes without saying that if you are interested in doing business in Latin America you must know Brazil and this study abroad program is a great way to do it. I might be moving back to São Paulo after graduation to experience ..."

Lori T Trinity University
"studying abroad is something that everyone should do in my opinion. "
Tim C Trinity University
"My experience really shifted my perspective on future plans. Going abroad helped me gain independence and realize the context in which I can thrive. I think that the study abroad experience allows people to learn more about themselves which is why I would recommend that students go abroad if they have the opportunity to do so. "
Marisa P Trinity University
"Absolutely. I would do it again and recommend it to everybody. I have become more self-confident and more assured of myself and my ability to travel and adapt. I hope to return to Central Europe one day in an academic or professional context."
Kathryn B The College of William and Mary

Lucy F Barnard College
"Extremely. I learned to be more independent in Sevilla and think its interesting to see how you cope with certain situations so far away from home. It is very difficult, but will help in the long run. "
Maribel P Trinity University
"The people I met and the experience of living in Barcelona made it worthwhile. However, it was not very beneficial academically, except the language improvement opportunity."
Tijana T Wellesley College
"I absolutely loved my time abroad. While there were things I disliked about my program, it didn't hinder my overall experience and I would do it all over again if I could. After taking many International courses I realized how much I enjoyed International Business and am currently double majoring in it. Studying abroad opened my..."

Katie M Tufts University
"My experience in Sevilla was mainly cultural. The classes at the University did not present a challenge to me and I did't feel like the educational aspect of my semester abroad was worth it. However, getting to know such a different culture was a really great experience. "
Eliana V Trinity University
"It was the most amazing 4 months of my entire life. I was truly able to live in a different country and experience a different way of life. This forced and allowed me to grow into a much stronger, independent, and cultured individual. I learned an incredibly deal about myself and can't wait to do something like this again. "
