Unlike many summer programs, this one lets you study alongside Scottish students who are also taking summer subjects. You will experience:
* Quaint, historic city - You'll feel like a character in a historical novel as you stroll the narrow, cobblestoned streets of Stirling.
* World-class university - You will reap the benefits of top-notch career academics and distinguished faculty at the respected University of Stirling.
* Fun class offerings with experiential components - Choose course in history, politics, religious studies, business, and media and film studies, all focused on learning about Scotland through readings and related field trips. For even more hands-on experience, take an internship module!
* History all around you - Catch a reenactment of a historic battle or take a tour of the medieval downtown to learn more about Stirling's key role in the Scot's fight for self-determination.
* A castle on campus, seriously - The University of Stirling is located on an 18th-century estate with a central lake and a castle. You certainly can't find that in the States!
* Travel opportunities throughout the region - With cheap airfare and train routes galore, you can travel in Scotland, throughout the UK, and to various cities, beaches, and mountains in Europe on the weekend. Less
During my CIS abroad summer in scotland, I was emerged into a different culture and had amazing experiences I won't ever forget. I'm glad that I chose CIS abroad and I have had the best summer of my life. All smooth sailing, and now that I'm home, I want nothing more than to go back to Scotland! Read more
Stirling was a delightful surprise. Being there was like being home. Never have I felt so welcome and comfortable. This city was so easy to settle into, everyone is so friendly and polite, I always felt safe and I was always having a good time. The University has some challenging work, but the work definitely pays off. Read more
This program was very well organized and very well executed. I loved my modules, and the professors were incredible. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who wanted to go to Scotland. Read more
The University of Stirling enables a great focus on providing their students with the ability to soak up the Scottish culture. Even challenge its newcomers to what it means to be Scottish. However, the experience average and did not meet my expectation of being life altering. Just learned different words and phrases as well as ate traditional Scottish food. Nothing too enlightening. This was my first out of the United States adventure, and I am q... Read more

Although I am still here for another month, I cannot believe how quickly time has passed. Despite some early arguments with flatmates and a dislike of the program administrator this summer has been great thus far. Read more
The program I went to was definitely worth the time and the money. I have learned and experienced so much in my time here. I would do this again in a heartbeat if I could. I have made friends for a lifetime and really understood myself and my home culture. I've tried so many new things and have seen things that no one could say they have ever had the chance to. I wouldn't trade this for the world. Read more
