It’s always great to see our students’ excitement for their upcoming high school summer abroad. This time we got to see it on the news—and just days before the start of summer '23!

Annandale High School students in Annandale, VA spoke to local news outlets about their CIEE Global Navigator Scholarship awards, why they chose their programs and how thankful they are for their teachers’ support. Many of our students hear about high school summer abroad from teachers they look up to. Without their encouraging words, many students would miss out on this life-changing opportunity!

Each year, CIEE awards $6 million in scholarships to high school students. The deadline to apply is typically in January.

Congrats to our Annandale students! We can't wait to see you on program!

Study Abroad During High School Summer Break

Our summer abroad programs for high school students take place during 3 or 4 weeks between June and August. Each year, more than 3000 U.S. teens travel to study Language & Culture or a topic in Arts, Business, Social Change or STEM.

With 30+ global destinations, your program can take you to an incredible corner of the world—where you’ll make language gains that equal 1 whole year of language classes, grow more independent, and make new friends for life!
