Whether you are looking for ways to energize your student body around international education or wanting to create a signature program that will brand your school for years to come, CEA CAPA has the teams and resources to help you develop and launch a customized FYE Abroad program!

By partnering with CEA CAPA in setting up a custom FYE Abroad program, your university can utilize:
MAINTAINING CONNECTIVITY WITH U.S. CAMPUS: CEA CAPA recognizes that an important aspect of FYE programs abroad is the cohort's connectivity to the university's campus culture. CEA CAPA will collaborate with your university to design unique activities that nurture the students' connection to the home campus, and allow them to remain in touch with campus culture and events.
EXTRA-CURRICULAR INCLUSIONS: To provide a fulfilling and culturally rich experience to the students, CEA CAPA recommends including frequently scheduled and structured activities throughout the program. We will partner with your university to source cultural activities and excursions that support the goals of your program and the needs of the first-year student population.
HOUSING: CEA CAPA offers a variety of housing types in each of our locations, but we recommend homestays or residence halls as the ideal student housing options for this type of program. These options may provide more structure to first-year students, and usually include a meal plan. CEA CAPA is happy to partner with your university to determine the housing type that will be the best fit for your program.
CEA CAPA is happy to partner with your university to determine which location will be the best fit for your international First-Year Experience abroad program. We have robust experience and expertise operating Study Centers in the following locations:
Due to liability concerns, and restrictions imposed by visa regulations and local laws, program participants cannot be younger than 18 years of age at the time of acceptance into the program.
