Public Health Study Abroad Programs in Ghana

I would be very likely to recommend CIEE Study Abroad to anybody due to how much it added to my school and human experience and how exciting it was! I think I was able to build and expand a lot of life and adult skills with the independent nature of the trip as well as the support given to me by the staff and students of the program. I would recommend this to anyone as long as they could afford it, since the high expense of the program and flights is not always fully or even partially covered by school, and it would be very expensive and often not possible for the majority of the people I know.

I would be likely to recommend CIEE Study Abroad to a friend or peer because on the back end (before starting the program) everything is really accommodating, all you have to do is ask. On the front end (while in the program) the experience is amazing and even with the little hiccups everything is still worth it.

I would recommend this to everyone! I would love to be able to do it again. I am so extremely grateful for all that we were able to do and experience. The field trips were so fun and educational. I loved being able to be exposed in Ghana culture. I even loved each of the staff and pals, you all were so nice and great people. I cherished every moment with CIEE so thank you so much for everything. Medaase paaaaa!!!!!

CIEE provided a great and enlightening program that allowed students to really experience the host culture while fostering community. Since being on this program my life goals have been infused with aspects I have received from my program.

My time here has been amazing and I have enjoyed all the freedom I could want in shaping this experience. Additionally, CIEE took very good care of us and offered many extra services like hosting us in the office, talks with interesting people in Ghana, Townhalls and additional classes. Moreover, the option to either live in a Homestay or ISH is a very valuable feature of CIEE I think.

CIEE made the entire study abroad experience so much richer. Whenever I had a problem, I could come to the ladies at the office and they would be quick to help me. CIEE organized trips and activities to help enrich our experience in Ghana, and without those, my experience would not be complete.

From the U-pals, to whatever Brown's job description is (program assistant?), to the Aunties (administrators?), to the Director, there are a lot of avenues to get information, help with problem-solving and advice. I felt very taken care of with CIEE Legon.

With the scholarships that CIEE provides, CIEE makes studying abroad more accessible for low income students. CIEE also streamlines the studying abroad process by providing students with helpful step-by-step instructions of required actions and with support from responsive staff.

Studied Linguistics and Arabic language here. The program was excellent in general, and especially since it was my first time traveling except as a tourist. I felt safe and welcomed both by the program and by Ghanians in general. Some people complained that NYU took care of us "too well" but it is certainly possible to immerse yourself in the culture if you take the initiative by: advice: take courses at Ghanian University as well as at NYU. Do an internship or community service.
