American Collegiate Adventures

My daughter had the most incredible experience this past summer in Florence and Greece. She went this summer not knowing any other students and met a great group of girls that I know she will continue to keep in touch with. She raved about the cooking classes and tried many new foods that she really liked! She also enjoyed her International Business course and found the material interesting. The weekend excursions were the highlight for her and Capri was her favorite of them all. ACA did such a wonderful job creating a memorable experience for her and all the other students on the trip. Great way to build independence and create more confidence for my daughter. We would definitely recommend it to any other families looking for a safe, fun, and educational summer experience! We will definitely be in touch in when our younger daughter is at the age for a summer travel experience.

Best summer ever in Barcelona!!! My son did not want to leave! He spent 3 weeks in Barcelona and 1 week in Greece with ACA. He went on the program not knowing anyone and came out with tons of new friends. They have already hung out at home after the program ended! He loved his International Business and Spanish electives. The program helped advance his Spanish level. His afternoons and evenings were filled with such fun activities. There were so many options, it never got old! His favorite weekend trip was to the South of France. The accommodations and meals were better than expected. The communication and travel alerts from ACA was really impressive. We felt very safe the entire program and the staff were just amazing to the students! We would most definitely recommend this program to other families!

My daughter had the most amazing experience in Barcelona with ACA!!! The program was very well organized and safe. It ran very smoothly and us parents appreciated all the updates and communication throughout the summer. My daughter loved all the electives and daily activities. She loved practicing her Spanish and she also took culinary which was her favorite! She absolutely loved the weekend excursion to the South of France! We really appreciate the personalization that ACA puts on these programs. We would highly recommend any ACA program!

I had the time of my life on ACA Barcelona! I met amazing new friends and participated in so many cool and exciting electives and activities! The weekends were filled with fun trips. We got to see so much of Spain and we even went to the French Riviera. The staff were amazing and always helped and supported us. The hotel where we stayed was very nice and in the best location! I loved going to the beach, shopping on Las Ramblas, going to Park Guell, the Picasso Museum, and hanging out in the Gothic Quarter. This program helped me become more independent and help me feel more prepared for college. Best summer ever!!!

This program is a total ripoff. The counselor are not equipped to be teaching and keeping your children safe.

The program offered a beach clean-up, which was a different volunteer experience than expected.

The kids were not taught in Spanish. The trip to the south of France was miserable the kids were in a bus for 8 hours.

They claimed to have a parent night and they did not have anything planned. DO NOT send your child here, this program should be shut down for many reasons.
