Study Abroad with CIEE
"YES! I learned to speak French confidently; I am nearly fluent now. I did not take French in college because I placed out of our requirement, and I felt that CIEE's program helped me to reconnect with this language and culture. I learned so much beyond the classroom as well. I now feel confident that I can get along with any..."

"It was worthwhile because I learned so much about the world, and it opened my eyes to the issues that face every country, and every city all over the world. Paris is not exempt from cultural tension and racism, and this dichotomy between the immigrants and the Parisians can be overwhelming. I certainly learned a lot, and, in fac..."

"yes"
Bob R The University of Texas at Austin
"This program changed my life. it sounds cliche, but I am not the same girl who initially boarded the plane to Japan. It brought new life to my textbooks and language lessons, and made me far more confident in my language skills. It was worth every penny, every stress-filed night, and every road-bump along the way. "

"I feel like I know The Netherlands inside and out. I met amazing people and it was great to experience a culture that has it together, but is 100% more laid back than America"
Lindsey H University of Vermont
"as stated in previous box!"
Claire M University of Oklahoma
"After this experience abroad, I plan to continue my graduate studies in Spain. I learned that not all individuals work to live like we do in the United States and Catalonians truly know how to enjoy life to the fullest. "

"This was the greatest experience of my life. I learned so much about their culture as was welcomed into their own culture with open arms. This hospitality has shown me a lot about life and has given me new perspective on how to live my own. Going abroad also makes the world less intimidating and gives me a brighter out look on ..."
Christina S Santa Clara University
"I am much more culturally sensitive. And I now hate airplanes. BUT I'm glad I did it and I'm very happy with CIEE. I wish I had a better time with advising for abroad. I'm glad I choose CIEE but I feel like my abroad advisor gave me ZERO support while I was here and before I came here. The class I took was PERFECT, but my univer..."

"Absolutely. I gained independence, confidence to speak Spanish and a great knowledge of the world. I loved this program so much that after graduation I went back to Sevilla through CIEE's Teach in Spain program."
Briana G Bates College
"I learned a lot about myself. I was challenged in every way possible and found myself in situations that required me to make smart choices. Don't trust everyone and don't get comfortable with the city life, by that I mean be street smart."

"If you're studying foreign languages and cultures, there really is no substitute to spending time in the country itself."
Ann G University of Minnesota - Twin Cities
"I am thrilled to have see the country and learned about the social aspect of it's people. I feel MUCH more understanding of life in general. I wish I could teach people here what I have learned about gedogen, and about the easy going life the Dutch seem to have mastered (not that life isn't stressful for them, but they take thei..."

"I gained a deeper understanding of Japanese culture because I was able to be part of it. Any lack of information about the Japanese Culture was filled while studying there. This experience will make it easier for me to make future plans involving foreign travel, especially back to Japan."
Alejandro D Portland State University
"yes"
Jeff K University of Colorado - Boulder
"It was incredibly worth my while. I find myself talking about my experiences in Botswana all the time and learned the most about myself while I was there. I gained a lot of independence and self-assurance. Also, being exposed to their public health systems has mad me so much more passionate about the subject. "

Jessica R Trinity University
"Being in Paris was great, the program and the coordinators would not be something I'd want to do over again, or revisit. Paris is a beautiful, rich city, and should be discovered."
