- Study broad in Galway!12/10/18
I would definitely recommend studying abroad in Galway with CEA. The city is beautiful, and there are lots of public transportation options to travel around Ireland. It only takes 2.5-3 hours to get to the airport in Dublin, so traveling outsie of the
country is a bit more time consuming, but doable. There are a wide variety of classes to choose from, and although the grading system is different than in the US (since one or two tests or papers make up your entire course grade), they are fairy straightforward. The only thing I did not like was the housing. A lot of the students party of weeknights and go home on the weekend, so weeknights can be loud in the student accommodation. Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper.

Choosing CEA was the best and easiest decision of my life. Their hands on approach made each step of the process manageable and my time abroad stress free. I was so lucky to have advisers to reach out to practically around the clock. I liked my experience
through CEA so much that I became an alumni insider. My study abroad experience changed my life and if you ever get the opportunity to go somewhere, take the leap.
