Being competitive in the global economy requires cutting edge knowledge, international experience and skills for the global workplace. North American students understand this, and this is why study abroad has grown by more than 300 percent during the past 15 years. As more students take advantage of this life-changing opportunity, CEA Global Education has developed ways to help students negotiate the many hurdles – academic, financial and cultural – to going abroad to learn and grow. CEA prides itself on offering exemplary customer service to students throughout their experience, from our innovative uses of technology to our caring personal admissions counselors, site specialists and talented faculty abroad.

Our admissions counselors help you get started, selecting the program and destination that best suits your academic needs and your desire to explore new cultures, while also helping you locate financial assistance in the form of loans, grants and/or scholarships. Once you are officially accepted into a CEA program, our knowledgeable site specialists work with you to prepare for a positive study abroad experience. That means helping you navigate the student visa process, select housing and prepare for your health and safety while visiting another country. Most importantly, our site specialists are available to answer those last-minute questions that sometimes arise before a trip abroad.

Thanks to CEA’s School of Record – the University of New Haven in West Haven, CT – and CEA’s strong partnerships and affiliations with U.S. and Canadian schools, our students can rest easy knowing that the credits they earned overseas will transfer to their home academic institution.

What this means for you is that you are free to focus on being a student in another culture, learning a new language, gaining global competence, enjoying the richness of a global city and making life-long friends. By choosing CEA, you’re gaining a true partner for a positive and rewarding study abroad experience.
