CIEE High School Summer Abroad Programs
Imagine summer soccer in Tanzania – with a mission
over 1,200 high school students like you study abroad each
summer. If you’re a U.S. citizen or permanent resident,
a current freshman, sophomore, or junior in a U.S. high
school, and have not previously accepted a Global Navigator
scholarship, you’re eligible!
Students can qualify for one of two types of scholarships.
“Merit Only” scholarships award 10% off tuition to students
with outstanding academic performance. “Merit and
Financial Need” scholarships award from 10 to 100% off
program tuition. Airfare is not included.
**Deadline for Scholarship application is December 6th, 2019!
DON’T MISS OUT!
Small-sized groups are part of what makes the CIEE
experience special. It also means our most popular programs
fill fast!
If you are not relying on a scholarship, make sure to complete
your application as soon as possible to secure a spot on your
favorite program. Applications without scholarships are
reviewed on a rolling basis.
Priority scholarship deadline: Submit on or before this
date for the best chance of getting a scholarship. We
award 80% of our scholarship funds to applicants who
meet this deadline.
Final scholarship deadline: Last chance! Applications
received on or before this date are eligible for our
remaining scholarship funds.
If you are applying for a “Merit Only” scholarship, you can pay
your deposit before the official deadline to secure a spot on
your favorite program.
GET THE CIEE ADVANTAGE
With a CIEE program, you’re completely immersed in
your host country culture – not a tourist on the sidelines.
Concepts you’ve covered in school come to life when you
apply them to real places you can experience with all five
senses. You’ll return home more independent, more
confident, and even more curious.
As one of the largest U.S. nonprofit organizations
dedicated to study abroad with 70+ years of experience,
we leave nothing to chance. From curriculum to safety, we
shape your entire experience by owning and operating
each of our 65 study centers worldwide and aligning
programs with high school learning standards in foreign
language, science, and service.

Our summer program taps into the potential of ambitious high school students, supporting you through the process of launching an actual startup.
Join a highly-curated group of promising young entrepreneurs from around the globe for four intense weeks. You’ll learn from industry experts and work in a group of peer co-founders to build real products and solve business challenges in viable ways.

We look for students who display initiative, impact, resilience, and collaboration. Let your entrepreneurial spirit show through in the application.
The application materials we ask for are as unique as the LaunchX program itself: you will put together a short video, answer some questions that give us a profile of your entrepreneurial propensity as an individual and how you’d contribute to a team and our community, plus your previous experience in activities and innovating. We’re excited to get to know you through this process, and we hope you enjoy it as well!
