CIEE Advanced Liberal Arts in Seville, Spain

I would be likely to recommend CIEE study abroad to a friend/peer because the experience was truly once-in-a-lifetime and I had so many incredible experiences and grew so much as a person. I would recommend this experience to anyone who has the chance and means.

I really enjoyed my time with CIEE Abroad. It is a great program that offers students so many opportunities to learn, explore, and succeed. For students who wish to go abroad and have a program with support to guide them, CIEE is the way to go.

I had the best experience with my host family, friends, traveling and living in Spain. CIEE was the perfect program to experience as much as Spain has to offer, from excursions, to meeting with Spaniards, to interesting classes. I cannot say enough good things about this program! Gracia por todo!

The CIEE Seville program has had a huge impact on my experience here. I mean, I can't imagine coming to Sevilla without doing it through CIEE. I mean, they don't just facilitate your paperwork and offer classes, but they also really try to help you integrate into the city. I've met other erasmus students in classes and just out and about, and I don't think they have had the same experience because they did not have someone like CIEE helping them along the way. 100% recommend to anyone and everyone!

The program advisors are so attentive and have always advocated for me. The CIEE center is beautiful and the events are plentiful and always well done. I love how there's no shame in learning the local language with them. Also -- all of guides are like my besties! love CIEE

CIEE was a great program, I felt very safe while traveling here. I love how we were delivered to our host families and picked up at the airport as a group. I also loved all the activities that were planned to meet new people. I think orientation was the best thing as I met a group of lifelong friends.

I found that the program gave us a well-rounded, truly immersive experience. CIEE provided us with fun events to help us make friends within and outside of the program as well as truly get to know the Spanish culture. I found CIEE to be very well-organized and helpful, and I felt supported throughout the entire experience.

I really enjoyed having the opportunity to go on cultural excursions during the weekends as part of the program. It really helped me to experience Spanish culture while I was here. In addition, the staff has been incredibly responsive with any and all concerns that I have had during the semester.

I think CIEE does a great job integrating the students with the locals (may it be with culture, traditions, with locals and such). Also CIEE does a great job at saving students money and offers great trips.

I felt very well-supported. I loved the included tours and excursions, and the staff were very friendly. It felt like a very safe program that would have my back.

This is a good program.

¡ Me gusta CIEE mucho! Beautiful program and people :)

I like my program a lot.

Once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing, learning so much.

Everything is super great but my teacher is perhaps the most boring lady I've ever met.

Having a great time. Sad I'm leaving because it's great to engage in the Spanish culture.

I love it.

I love Seville and wouldn't have asked for anything else.

It is cool.

It was excellent. Everything was wonderful. You should do it.

Great program! One of the most respected programs in Sevilla. Choosing Sevilla was the best decision I ever made. I had the most amazing host family and experience! I highly recommend this program if you want to experience the Spanish culture!

This was a great program that provided a lot of opportunities for students academically and socially. However, you get out of it what you put in: meeting Spaniards and getting involved in the community is something you have to make an effort to do. CIEE provides the opportunities, but expects its students to take the initiative. Overall, this program was very good academically and provided a lot of activities.

Loved it, but would definitely recommend living with a host family (like I did).. You get a much better experience.

Great experience that allowed me to be immersed in the culture and travel around Europe.

If you want a full cultural immersion experience then this is a great program. My language improved incredibly. It is also a very independent program.

The CIEE program in Sevilla takes place in a beautiful, renovated colonial home in a historic part of the city. Just the walk there is enchanting in itself. The program is extremely well administered, with staff from Spain, the U.S. and some from other parts of the world all very specialized in certain skills and working to make the student experience exceptional. There was a perfect amount of excursions and social activities to allow participants to see essential parts of southern Spain, but not so many that there wasn't time to travel independently. There were plenty of opportunities to meet locals through various social activities and exchanges, as well as a thorough orientation at the start of the program that paired a group of students with a local guide who showed them around the city and took them under their wing. Overall, an exceptional program in a location prime for Spanish language and culture acquisition. Bien hecho, CIEE!

Program average...experience meeting Spaniards was great. Though I studied there 10 years ago, so these rating may not reflect the current situation.

I loved my host family, and I became very comfortable with the language, and I traveled a lot. All in all, it was a good time. The program isn't the best, though.

Loved it, I am planning to go back after college.
