I’m planning to do the summer program in Japan, I’ve been studying for almost 4 years of Japanese, this is my last hope as an highschool senior student to achieve my goals of returning to japan and experience it with knowledge of more japan and it’s culture.
I’m planning on do the fall program. I mostly want to do it because it’s my senior year in high school n idk what to in life. but my problem is mostly moneyyy
thanks for sharing your reflections about your experience! I’m going with CIEE as a senior in college to London and Rome so I always enjoy hear other students experiences. I fly out tonight!!!
Have actually done the CIEE TEFL and have two years teaching in Thailand at a University near Bangkok (Thanyaburi - R.M.U.T.T. ). Have had limited experience with their competitors. XploreAsia seemed more responsive. Greenheart was difficult to get a hold of CIEE did respond when I expressed interest in another Teach in Thailand. Even the university that I worked at expressed interest in me coming back outside of a program). I absolutely loved my time in Thailand! Even after breaking my arm in a motorcycle accident. Be sure to get involved in a program that offers decent travel insurance! Or find your own travel insurance! Hospitals in Thailand seemed decent especially the closer you are to large metro areas! Plus hospitals in Thailand generally have staff that speak understandable English!
I got accepted to study abroad in Madrid, Spain but I’m worried that people might make fun of my Spanish considering the fact that I speak ‘Latin American’ Spanish and not Spanish from Spain 😞
honestly i think people will appreciate your *dialect* -- i am from Mexico and when I went to Uruguay, I found that most people reacted positively to it! i think in general, Hispanics are welcoming so if this is the only thing stopping you from going, i would do it! :)
Hi I have a question does every high school in the US allow for us to become an exchange student? I emailed my counselor and they said that I couldn’t do it through my district. What does this mean?
Did you mention that you were doing it through a program? Because it might be that your counselor thinks your trying to do it through your district not through ciee or any other program.
Hey sorry to bother I have been trying to find more about CIEE High school in USA but I can't find any information about the cost, by any chance do you know something more about it
How do you get into CIEE? Is it hard to get accepted into a program? I applied to go to Spain for the summer and I want to know if I should apply to multiple programs
I got offered to go for summer 2021 (since 2020 got cancelled) on a scholarship but I'm facing a dilemma seeing as the current situation is so unpredictable. I don't wanna drop so much money into this program and have it get cancelled last minute. Plus I don't even know if anyone else is going. ;;
i think that by that point, the vaccine will be developed and hopefully shared with the general population here and abroad - if you are very sure about studying in high school rather than later on in (e.g. in college/post-grad life) then i would do it! studying abroad opens up your mind in a super unique way. hope that helps xx
@@adeoyechristania637 Because of the pandemic. Also they wanted me to pay $600 that month and I just thought that with everything that is going on, I’m not sure if I’ll even get to go.
I got accepted for the scholarship in studying abroad in shanghai China! Any advice? *i already accepted the scholarship* also do they provide a visa or do you have to pay for the visa?
first of all, congratulations!! that’s exciting - i am pretty sure you have to pay for the visa.. i remember having to take care of those sorts of documents but i would double check on their website to make sure!
Skylar Faye both SUCH great options! they’re both big cities.. are u looking to be more exposed to the French language/culture or Spanish language/culture?
@@Skylarrfayee yeah that makes a lot of sense! I would do whatever feels better for you - hopefully you will be able to travel to the other country that you choose in another occasion. I would consider that this a really immersive experience that you might not otherwise get when you are 'vacationing' so, I would choose to devote this study abroad to whatever country you want that type of experience in. there's really no wrong answer here in my pov!
i think the summer before your senior year is one of the most pivotal ones for college applications. if you are planning having this study abroad “frame” your application as a student, then go for it then. if this is serves as more of a “secondary experience” then do it during your senior year.
I’m like in need of some serious advice, I applied for the summer aboard in Kyoto Japan and got a full scholarship but they switched my program to LGBTQ activism in Netherlands had that happened to anyone else???
Yeah I applied to Kyoto as well and they gave me a scholarship to Yucatán so I emailed them asking if I could change it to Japan or if I was going to keep the one in Mexico and they told me decisions are final
Hi dear how are you ❤ I am interested to study in ciee scholarship and i apply for that. But it has some problems in apply for scholarships. So i requested you to help me and contact to me Please reply 😊 Thanks

You should check the infection rates in your desired country. And keep tabs on the charts there.

How was the flying process? Did you fly out from your state or did you have to meet in another to fly with others?
MakaylaHoltz yes! i go more into these type of logistics in my other video about CIEE - the meeting point was in Newark!

@@edgarpio472 oh great I'm going to study abroad in Japan, how did you apply for the scholarship
@@polly_9688 well I did the applications. And asked to do the merit and financial aid one
For anyone who might go with CIEE know that you need a 3.0 gpa and 2 years of high school Japanese language
What if there’s no Japanese language in high school?
on the website it says that there’s no language requirement
@@user-rv8uj3vq7l I'm doing it online and you only need a year I'll send you the name of the language school
@@yolnavolmar3988 yeah there isn't, i applied last year to kyoto without any Japanese language experience and i got in :)

i got accepted for the kpop immersion in seoul south korea but it got cancelled and moved to next year :(
Wow tht sucjs
But was it hard to get accepted? like the process if you dont me asking what did you have to do?

I can’t decide between Madrid or France ugghhhh😖😖
Skylar Faye both SUCH great options! they’re both big cities.. are u looking to be more exposed to the French language/culture or Spanish language/culture?
Lorena I’m more interested in the French culture! But I feel that Spain might be more beneficial for me since I’ve been learning it for about 4 years.

nope!
do you recommend going the summer before your senior year OR your senior year?
