    Overview

    Put your global education first! See Kyoto and start college at the same time on CIEE’s First Year Abroad program.

Immerse yourself in the local Japanese culture by engaging in activities and excursions with first-year peers and other CIEE study abroad students.

    Japan’s most historic city remains the hub of traditional old-world culture — and a perfect place to study traditional art, architecture, and history. While Tokyo is the official capital of Japan, Kyoto is often called the country’s “cultural capital.” With a wealth of well-preserved historical and religious landmarks (including 17 UNESCO World Heritage Sites), Kyoto is like a living, open-air museum — and a perfect place for studying Japanese language and culture.
