High School Study Abroad Details

CIEE High School Study Abroad programs bring together students, families, schools and communities in an interactive, cross-cultural learning experience. Programs' participants:

• live with a host family as their own son or daughter
• attend a local high school
• participate in community activities, and
• experience life in a totally new and different way!

Study abroad for high school students - length of stay options:

• individual terms
• high school semester abroad
• the full academic year

This CIEE program is often called a high school foreign exchange program - even though it is a program for each U.S. high school student traveling abroad - it is not tied to a foreign student coming to the USA to study. Students enjoy a once in the lifetime experience within the safety net of the entire CIEE Support team.
