High School Abroad

Description: High School Abroad brings together students, families, schools and communities in an interactive, cross-cultural learning experience. CIEE's High School Abroad Program is the best way to become a global citizen. CIEE students live with a host family, as their own son or daughter, attending high school, participating in community activities and experiencing life in a totally new and different way. Programs are available for individual terms or semesters, or for the full academic year. In some cases, attending a private school is also an option. CIEE offers High School Abroad programs in Australia, Brazil, France, Germany and Spain.

Highlights:
1. Before You Go: From Day One, you will receive personalized attention and be provided with materials to help you prepare for your adventure abroad. We will assist you with all necessary visa applications and insurance details.

2. On the Program: We don't forget about you once you're gone! You will have access to staff both here in the United States as well as in your host country. Our support services network is always available to offer advice, assistance, or just to chat.

3. Back Home: Your exchange experience doesn't end when you return home. We'll provide you with information and advice to help ease the transition back to your normal routine.

We approach our tasks aware of the great responsibility we are given to help mold tomorrow's citizens in a complex and fast-changing world. We are committed to being a truly global organization. We continue to open new offices, establish new programs, and form new partnerships on every continent. We have initiated exchange activities between and among many of the newer countries we now serve and expect this pace to quicken in the coming years. We move into the next century, and into our next fifty years, with lofty, but achievable, goals. We are proud of our past and excited about our future and our ability to contribute to the world in which we live. CIEE moves forward with the same spirit of commitment that has already made us a worldwide leader in international education and exchange.
