- Best Semester of My Life04/10/20
CEA French Riviera truly gave me a once in a lifetime experience. This program puts you in the heart of the French Riviera in a coastal town called Antibes. Antibes is the Yacht capital of Europe, and an amazing place to live. There is so much culture
here, and the restaurants are out of this world. Antibes is a short train ride away from various destinations on the Riviera such as Nice, Monaco, Cannes, and Grasse. Plus you can take the train to Paris if you'd like! One of my favorite parts of my experience was going to class in the morning and hitting the beach in the Afternoon. Antibes is home to one of the world's only Piccasso Museums. This program also allows you to study at the world renowned Skema School of Business! The best part of this program though is the site director Kristen. Kristen is the very best when it comes to abroad. Not only do you get someone who cares about you but you get a local expert. Her day trips around the Riviera are fun and educational. On top of that she does various onsite activities like wine tasting. You can't go wrong with this Program.

I can very easily say that studying abroad in the French Riviera through CEA has been one of the best experiences of my life. Our on-site coordinator, Kristen, was like a second mom to our group of 24 college students. The excursions and activities that
she planned made my four months that much more special. Our housing was very centrally located, and public transportation made it easy to visit other neighboring cities like Nice and Cannes. Living in a different country for a semester can be scary, but it didn't take long before Antibes felt like my home. I feel so connected to Antibes that I plan to go back and visit every three years. And I have CEA to thank for it. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is considering studying abroad.

This trip has been the definition of, an experience of a lifetime. Every single day was a new adventure with more laughs than the last. Who would have known just how impactful this location and these people were going to be? Every trip I went on, or every
conversation that I attempted to have in French allowed me to grow as a person and culturally.

I absolutely loved living in Costa Rica for a month and I highly recommend this program! CEA was always there for me and they did such a great job organizing the weekend excursions, having events to go to during the week, and providing so many resources
for the students. I felt very safe the whole time I was San Jose and I absolutely fell in love with it. My host mom was so sweet and I am so glad I chose to do a home stay. I enjoyed my class at the university and my professor was so helpful and kind. I really loved this program and I can’t wait to return to Costa Rica!
