Once in a lifetime opportunity
September 29, 2024by: Rebecca M.Program: CIEE High School Summer Abroad: Creative Writing in LondonThis was an amazing experience and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to study abroad and have connections around the world. I would most definitely go again if I had the chance. Plus, I would very much like to have the $200 refer-a-friend benefit, in order for me to have a chance to go once more.
Inspiring for Future Writers!
September 25, 2024by: Iley Velazquez- O'S.Program: CIEE High School Summer Abroad: Creative Writing in LondonI really enjoyed the program and the activities. It’s a great place to make friends and explore the city. The writing program is really inspiring and helps you become more creative in the class and learn a lot on the literary side of London. The only reason I wouldn’t recommend the program is how expensive it was. For me it was really hard to afford this trip even with the scholarship.
