Program Highlights

What will you do on weekends? Attend a GAA game. Visit Carlingford, the Boyne valley, Newgrange, or the Giant's Causeway. Enjoy daytrips to Belfast and Dublin.

Come home better prepared to make transitions, take control of new situations, and appreciate challenging experiences for what they are: opportunities to learn and grow.

Study abroad and gain life skills you can’t learn in a classroom, showing college admissions reps that you’re already one step ahead in terms of initiative and independence.

Immerse yourself in unfamiliar practices and customs, helping you become better equipped to interact with people from other cultures — in school, on the job, or in your personal life.

No matter where you choose to study abroad with CIEE, our staff will be on hand throughout your program to provide advice, resources, and support.

My most memorable experience was probably just my host family and the school I went to.

It was the best experience of my life and I made life long friends and family that I will never forget. My most memorable experience was probably just my host family and the school I went to because it was where I spent most of my time.
