My Nonprofit Reviews

This CIEE organization does not have a clear policy for their applicants . Unfortunately my fourteen year old son applied for this program and they rejected him because he was not a freshman in HS and they did mention anything about their unclear policy by the enrollment coordinator. In fact they were rush to collect funds and for my family to make a commitment to the program.

For example, the CIEE website or their terms and conditions does not indicate 8th graders or rising freshman don't qualify. One of their enrollment coordinator twisted the CIEE terms and conditions - page 27 indicating the following statement"
"Rising freshman are not eligible to participate. You need to complete 9th grade prior to traveling on a CIEE program". When I confronted about the misleading the CIEE never reply to my email.

Now it has been a month already and they have not refund payment after they agreed to send payment in two weeks. Please do your due diligence before making a commitment to this program - big red flags! If they have issues internally I don't want how is overseas.
