I would recommend this to everyone
by: Stephanie S.Program: CIEE Arts and Sciences in Legon, GhanaI 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!!!!!
Everything is really accommodating
by: Ashley R.Program: CIEE Arts and Sciences in Legon, GhanaI 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.
