Best Decision I Ever Made

Studying abroad in Prague through CEA was the best thing I ever did. Not only was my experience so amazing because of the city itself, but CEA made everything so easy and smooth. Every staff member is always so kind and willing to help you with whatever you need. Whether it was sending me syllabi for specific classes so I could get courses approved at my home college or responding quickly to questions I had, CEA is always on top of it. They also make the whole package worth it because they have amazing housing around Prague and offer many cultural activities and excursions you can attend for free! They even have several free activities you can do on a weekly basis, like yoga, personal training, and rock climbing. The school they partner with has also added to my study abroad experience because I only have classes 3 days a week, which is typical, so I have time to travel and explore Prague, plus I also get to meet students from all over the world! I very much recommend this program to anyone who is interested in studying abroad.

Abroad in Prague

Studying abroad in Prague through CEA was an amazing experience that I highly recommend. I felt safe throughout the city, especially at my university. My favorite times were experiencing day-to-day life, doing homework, exploring cafes, restaurants, and shops. I made friendships that have carried over back to the States and memories with these friends that I will forever hold dear to me. Traveling from Prague is easy as it is so centrally located and traveling most weekends allowed me to explore all over Europe.

What would you improve about this program?
I highly recommend CEA and don't see any improvements with it.

GO TO PRAGUE

This city is honestly the perfect study abroad city. Not only is it student friendly in the fact that it is EXTREMELY inexpensive. It is also very easy to get around with public transportation, it is also very central in Europe only 4 hours from Berlin, Vienna, Bratislava and only 8 hours from Budapest. And also very close to other cities in Europe. It's full of history and has amazing coffee! What's not to like!

What would you improve about this program?
Possibly increasing the number of cultural immersion activities available. To truly immerse ourselves in Czech culture.

Unforgettable Experience

CEA made sure that everything went smoothly so that we could get the most out of our study abroad experience. They were always readily available and easy to contact when needed, not to mention super friendly. They always had events, activities and programs to keep us engaged, help us meet our fellow study abroad peers and help us learn all about our new home. They even organized trips to help us see more of the Czech Republic. They prioritized our safety and our needs and were always very accommodating. I was housed in a really nice apartment located right near old town and everything was in walking distance. Prague is an absolutely amazing city where there is always so much to do and see, plus beautiful architecture and great food. This was an amazing program and I'm so grateful to have participated.

What would you improve about this program?
The orientation process could be lengthened. It was nice that it wasn't dragged on (it was about half a day), but a little more structure at the beginning would have been helpful. My friends and I were unsure of what to do in our time and some program sponsored activities would have been nice.

Prague

Study abroad is what you make of it. Make sure you do your research before you go and make sure you know what you are getting yourself into. Everyone says it will be the best four months of your life and in ways it is. But don't forget, just like any other experience in life, there are ups and downs. There is so much hype to have a lot of fun and to have a positive experience--it almost sets unrealistic expectations. If you are struggling with the culture shock or the language barrier, you are not alone. If you are homesick or lonely, you are not alone either. There is so much pressure to capture that instagram-able moment and people tend to highlight what is going well in their life when posting about experiences. Don't get me wrong, studying abroad truly is such a wonderful experience. Take advantage of this freedom you likely won't have once you graduate college. Prague is a beautiful city--there is so much to do and so much to eat, but, the locals are not very friendly. It is a quiet city and the czech culture is very different from what we are used to.

What would you improve about this program?
I think CEA employees should be more involved in the study abroad experience. It felt like I was dumped in a foreign city.

Response from CEA CAPA Education Abroad

We appreciate your honest feedback and think others will benefit from the thoughts you have shared. At CEA, we work hard to connect with students from the time they arrive and are met at the airport through our extensive Arrival Orientation onsite, throughout their program, and, unless they have selected independent housing, during regular housing checks-in. In addition, CEA creates excursions and wellness activities that provide opportunities for students and staff to share their experiences and learn about the culture.

Your review highlights the importance of thinking critically about a destination. Before your travel, be sure to answer these questions and make an informed decision:

• Does the destination appeal specifically to you?
• Are you comfortable exploring a city on your own?
• Would you prefer to travel alone, or would you prefer to have friends travel with you?
• Have you been exposed to the local language?
• Do you prefer to take in sights and enjoy nightlife or would you prefer to explore cultural and historical interests while abroad?
• Will you be comfortable with being immersed in a culture you do not know?

By answering these questions before traveling, you are more likely to have success abroad. It is important to remember that study abroad is about self-discovery as much as it is about academic discovery. Even when an experience doesn’t measure up to our expectations, there are always great opportunities to learn and grow.
