CEA in Rome

All the staff at CEA Rome are so nice and truly care about the students. You can go to them with any question or problem you encounter, ranging from the best restaurants to bring you parents or what to do when the power goes out in your apartment, and they are always there to help. This has been such a great experience for me and I would highly recommend CEA Rome to anyone that is thinking about studying abroad in Rome.

The Best Decision of a Lifetime

This by far was the most amazing, eye opening, soul finding experience of my life. I made some of the most amazing friends and an entire new group of people that i call family. The country was absolutely stunning and there was never a dull moment. The Program CEA was beyond accommodating. The staff was always helpful and assisted with anything that was ever needed. Some times they would even go out of their way to show you how enjoyable cultural activities could be in the area!

CEA a Roma

I could not imagine a better program than CEA! The staff are extremely helpful, the living conditions are in a beautiful neighborhood, the classes are engaging and hands-on, the professors are knowledgable and passionate, and the program activities and excursions are incredibly fun. Everyone involved in the program will do anything to make your experience as positive as possible. I couldn't have had a better semester and would do it all over again if I could!

CEA in Rome Truly Caters to Needs of Students

The CEA in Rome program is one that truly nurtures and caters to the needs of students. Being a smaller sized program allows students to really get to know professors and faculty in a way that helps them feel supported, encouraged, and provides a comfortable, safe, and fun learning environment. One of the best things CEA in Rome provides is weekend trips! We went to Assisi, Florence, and Venice. Going on these beautiful and educational trips as a whole program allowed me to really get to know different cities in Italy, their culture, and also get to know and become friends with people in my program! This experience was one of the best of my life!

What would you improve about this program?
One thing lacking in this program that I think is really important is cultural immersion. The fact that only American students are a part of the CEA program makes cultural immersion difficult, but social activities like the cooking and clay making class really helped me get to know local Italians, and I would have really enjoyed more events like that. I think that both American students and local Italians would benefit from some sort of integrative programs. Having the opportunity to tutor local students in english, or having more (weekly?) programs like cooking classes or some other social programming would really help this program to be more inclusive.

The best investment you'll ever make.

I spent three months living, studying, and interning in Sydney. The academic side of the program was not rigorous, as we were only completing a writing minor for our home institution. Two days of the week were spent in "class." Wednesdays' were spent in the classroom and Fridays classes were spread out throughout Sydney; a walking tour of Circular Key, a hike at the Q Station, and tours of museums. The rest of the week was spent interning at our respective internship site. I spent my three months interning at Cancer Council NSW, and it was the best experience. I was able to help the Events Department planning Seven Bridges Walk. I wish I had been able to spend more time in Sydney, because it truly felt like home!

What would you improve about this program?
More opportunities to travel outside of NSW.

When in Rome

I had an excellent experience in Rome! CEA makes the city feel a little smaller; you are a part of a strong community within a big city. I immediately fell in love with Rome. Besides the great food and sightseeing, the Italian culture is amazing to be a part of. CEA was easy to contact incase of any problems and they offered many activities and excursions to help enhance the experience. I would highly recommend anyone studying abroad to consider Rome, especially the CEA program here.

Studying Abroad with CEA London

I studied abroad with CEA London last Spring semester (2015). From the minute I submitted my application, CEA's staff was welcoming and helpful. Cassandra Peacock was my program coordinator and she made every day with CEA a new adventure. I loved all of the organized trips and fun activities we did around the city. Through CEA I was able to acclimate to the London way of life and see so many different aspects of the culture. Not only did CEA make my time abroad special, but the relationship continued after I left. The friendships I made with my roommate and other program members are still going strong. Plus, when I emailed Cassandra a year later for assistance with a project back at my home university, she immediately said yes. The care and support I've received from the CEA staff really made my time abroad (and after) extremely special.

London,England

I studied at Goldsmiths University in London, England. The University was very unique with students all over the world in my classes. I would describe the University as very artsy and unique. My professors were quite brilliant, the campus was beautiful, and London was incredible. Studying abroad in England was the best decision I ever made. You meet people from all over the world, learn about different cultures, and make incredible memories. The education over there is top notch and the people are very kind. I traveled to nine different countries while studying abroad and I do not regret studying in London because it became my favorite city.

Aixcellent!

Studying abroad with CEA in Aix en Provence was the best decision I ever made! Leaving your home for 3 months to a year can be scary but the CEA staff and the friends you make really do become your family. I love Vivienne and Nancy; they are amazing and super helpful if you ever need to make a doctor's appointment or even just a haircut. I have made lifelong memories and friends through my experience with CEA and I cannot recommend this program enough!

London

London was an amazing place to study abroad, I had no idea I would fall in love with a place the way I fell in love with London. CAPA was a wonderful program. I learned so much in my international marketing class and they could not hove found me a more perfect internship. Leaving London was one of the saddest things I have done, if it were up to me and not my 4-tier VISA I would have stayed forever.
