CIEE Arts and Sciences in Cape Town, South Africa

It is an amazing program where they strive to help you learn how to integrate into a new culture but push you to do that hard work yourself as well. It is a challenging program with so many benefits (and you’ll make great friends)

I would recommend CIEE to a friend who wanted to study abroad in Cape Town. CIEE provides three housing options that tailor to different goals and personality types. CIEE also provides volunteer opportunities and a few field trips throughout the semester. Additionally, the HQ is centrally located in Ron Court and is a good home base for students in all three residence options, and there is always someone on staff available to talk to if there is a problem (students never feel totally on their own but rather always supported by the staff and the program).

It is an enriching experience that you cannot typically get inside a classroom setting. Traveling abroad opens up individuals to new cultures and new experience not found anywhere else. Every student should participate in a study abroad program and CIEE does this very well.
