Study Abroad with CIEE
"yes!"
Holley S Trinity University
"My study abroad experience was phenomenal. I grew as a person and learned that not all generalized groups of white people suck. Why? Because they're foreign and you don't know them well enough to pass judgement."
Brian S Tulane University
"Yes, I travelled to more countries than I thought possible. "
Jennifer R Trinity University
"I was certainly satisfied with it, as I definitely improved my French and I got to see and do things that most people will never do in a lifetime. However, I still feel like the program didn't stress the all important cultural immersion enough; I feel that we should have had more structured opportunities to meet and interact wit..."
Andrew K Ohio State University - Columbus
"Basically I gained a new respect for Europe outside of the West. It was my first trip east of Germany and the horror stories of the Cold War past were mostly malarkey. Prague is honestly the best place I have ever been. I really want to focus my political science and geography majors towards Eastern Europe now because I think bo..."

Tess H University of Colorado - Boulder
"This program made coming back to America harder than I ever thought it would. It's not if I do or don't regret going, it's if I do or don't regret coming back! I loved my time in Morocco, and it has helped me feel more comfortable with the fact that I don't have the rest of my life planned out to the day. "
Samantha B University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth
"Yes, this experience demonstrated to me my ability to handle changes and things that I need to adapt to quickly. This didn't change my future plans so much as confirm them. I am ow even more convinced that I want to take a year to teach English in South Korea and it is because of the amazing experience that I had on this program..."
Erica M Stonehill College
"I think the most important thing I learn was to be more assertive. Its easy just to let people have their way, but I learned to stand up for myself. To make it in a foreign country away from anyone you know you have to learn to stand up for yourself. "
Abigail P University of Nebraska- Lincoln
"Yes, my study abroad experience was worthwhile because I've learned and embraced so much through the program that it made me a better person for who I am. "
Lori K Rochester Institute of Technology
"I am definitely more culturally aware than I was before. "
Allison M The University of Texas at Austin
"The biggest impact this experience had on my was a personal one. I went from being a high-strung, busy student to one that has a more relaxed attitude about life. I was able to put a lot of things into perspective and feel that I have a more balanced life style."
Shelby L University of Kentucky
"Yes. I just wish I could have done a homestay but the natural disaster was (obviously) out of our control."
Anna m Wellesley College
"In only that short time frame, I feel that I changed and matured greatly as an individual. As I had hoped, I gained an appreciation for my culture as well as others. I want to travel so much now so I can improve my knowledge of the diverse cultures in our world. I tend to keep a more open mind now. Also, I am much more indep..."
Morgan L University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse
"I developed a deeper love of ecology/science/nature, improved my Spanish, learned what it was like to live in a developing country, and made some great friends. More than anything else, it has made me consider going into an environmental field. "
