Note that CIEE Offers Multiple Location & Program Format Options

CIEE Open Campus Block
A flexible study abroad program that lets students design their own experience. Instead of staying in one city for the whole semester, students complete an 18-week program made up of 6-week blocks and can study in up to three different locations during that time. Students can customize their courses and destinations among more than 20 cities worldwide, allowing them to match classes to their major while exploring multiple cultures. This program is ideal for students who want flexibility in their schedule and the opportunity to study in more than one place during their time abroad. Learn more about CIEE's Open Campus Block here and view location options here.

CIEE Semester In Programs
Offers a traditional study abroad experience where students spend 16–18 weeks in one city, earning 12–16 academic credits while studying courses that can count toward their degree. Programs are open to students from any major and offer classes in a wide range of subjects, often taught in English or the local language depending on the location. Students may take courses at CIEE centers, partner universities, or through CIEE x ASU online, and some locations offer optional for-credit internships. This program is ideal for students who want to fully immerse themselves in one destination while exploring the local culture, academics, and community.
