Alison L The University of Texas at Austin
"I loved CIEE and everything it provided me with, but I wish I had been more challenged. I could have handled more difficult courses as well as the challenge of living on my own without CIEE there to take care of everything for me. However, having a host family provided by CIEE was one of the best things that has happened to me..."
Rose S The University of Texas at Austin
"Studying abroad helped me to become more independent and confident. It also opened me up to Africa. I knew little of South Africa before I went. But now I am in love with the country and I am much more interested in Africa. This program helped me realize just how complex South Africa is and often how misunderstood South Africa a..."

"Yes, absolutely. It made me so much more self-confident, I got first-hand exposure to the challenges of development and working in the developing world, and my internship exposed me to an issue, electronic waste, that I was not aware of but that I've now pursued back in the US and am writing my senior thesis on. Being in Ghana ..."

Felicia P The University of Texas at Austin
"Absolutely. I gained skills, I made friends, I had experiences that will never be equaled by anything ever again. The educational aspect of the program was pretty sucky- I did not glean much of an education from CIEE- but the cultural aspect and everything else, the people, the place, EVERYTHING ELSE, was brilliant beyond brilli..."

"Studying abroad is no doubt something everyone should do. You learn so much about other cultures as well as yourself. I cannot even put into words how studying abroad has affected me. When I graduate in December, I will not take a job that does not involve international participation. "
Brittany B The University of Texas at Austin
"It was the most incredible experience. I learned so much about myself and other people, and how great a different way of life can be. I think that Spain is a relaxing and beautiful place, with such rich culture and history. The people, Sevilla, and everything about my whole experience has given me the travel bug and I can't w..."
Jenni P The University of Texas at Austin
"My experience was so much more than credit fulfillment. Because of my time abroad I've become more understanding, more aware of my own abilities and more appreciative of my own culture. Also, I've recognized that I want to be more daring in my future career choices and life decisions because even though risks are always challeng..."

Jasmine T The University of Texas at Austin
"Absolutely. While i have a lot of criticisms, it was one of the most wonderful things i have ever done. What I learned, in and out of school, cannot even be summarized here. I learned so much history, culture, music, and life lessons. Meeting new people, from a different lifestyle is a gift, and an important experience. It truly..."

Ciska U The University of Texas at Austin
"Although I gained some important and applicable experience, it wasn't worth giving up the summer for."
Sarah Y The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned so much it is impossible to distill down into a few sentences. I deepened my understanding of not only myself, but the world around me and my place and role within that world. I gained a self assurance and confidence, a deepening knowledge of who I am, what I am capable of and what I am becoming. I learned how it is ..."

Leah P Hope College
"YES!!! 100% "
Juliana C Barnard College
"There are many things you realize after you experience being a foreigner in a different country. Their way of everyday living and communication is vastly different from ours in America and I believe that after spending 20 years in the same country, that it was good for me to get out and see how other people live. This experien..."
