Study Abroad with CIEE
"This has been my favorite study abroad experience of the three that I have had. I learned so much about Japanese culture, language, and society that I brought back to my home university and events. It has also impacted my academic plans in that I became much more interested in international affairs after participating."

"My study abroad experience was absolutely worthwhile. I have changed and become more globally-aware.

Morocco is somewhere I would like..."

"My study abroad experience was extremely positive, especially when it came to improving my Spanish."
A student Fordham University
"Going abroad has made me very independent, and more worldly. I got to see and do so many things I thought I would never see or do. I learned that open mindedness will get you very far, and in another country the best thing to do is whatever the natives do. Unlike most people, I had interest in teaching abroad when I graduated co..."
