Study Abroad with CIEE
"I would definitely regret not coming to Japan when I had the chance, so I'm glad I went through with it and spent a semester in Tokyo. At times, I feel like it was an academic waste of a semester, but outside of the academics, I've made a lot of memories that have made it worthwhile. After being in Japan, I feel like its unneces..."

"Being in Ghana really made me appreciate life and see what is really important. Children in Ghana have so little, yet they are so happy. The people are welcoming, helpful, and generous. People always take the time to stop and chat on the streets with acquaintances. In the U.S., people can go a whole day without another human int..."

"I gained a beginners grasp of the Arabic language. A much greater understanding of Arab and Muslim culture and how they view the rest of the world. I got to see many places that few Americans will ever travel to; Beirut and Damascus for example. I would be very interested in a return visit either to work or visit. "

"I learned a lot about Japan, but the main benefit was the reaffirmation of what is important for me to have in my life back home. For me personally, I came to realize the importance of family and a solid foundation on which to enjoy life rather than getting caught up in the rat race that is Tokyo. "

"New experiences are always worthwhile, and wherever one chooses to travel/study there is wisdom to be gained. Interestingly enough, whenever I go abroad I feel more patriotic than ever, often long for people with familiar values/ways of conducting themselves, and find myself starting sentences with "In America we...". This sor..."

"I plan on working in Tokyo when I graduate so I would say this is a good indicator of my experience there. It changed my perspective on being American in a foreign city as well as being American in America. I met so many international people as well as native Japanese people and I feel like you can only get that experience if yo..."

"Gain a great understanding of a culture that has expanding and prospered so fast in a short amount of time. Living in a fast culture also changes my habits and thinking into a more consistent and fast-pace decision. "
David L California State University - Fresno
"It was definitely worthwhile. It was tough being away in a new culture for so long, but it was so worth it. Also, Prague is super cheap and centrally located, so traveling and living were both very possible and affordable."
