<p>Is this another scam or is it a good program?</p>
<p>I did it two years in a row...its really good...its not a scam. 50 odd yrs. old and well respected. Highly recommend it. Where are you thinking of going??</p>
<p>I second what Senor said...I've done it three years in a row (UK, Australia, and Southern Europe) It was def amazing</p>
<p>I went to china. It isn't a scam - but you should understand it is more like a tour then the word ambassador would lead you to believe. I had a good time, and I got a total of one full high school credit. If I had any complaints, I would have wanted more freedom - but I was older then most in my group so I can see why that wasn't really possible. I would not have gone to England or Australia - but in China the lack of independence didn't bother me as much as it would have elsewhere. Feel free to PM or email me with any questions.</p>
<p>I asked my guidance counselor about it last year, and she told me that it is one of those programs that is really fun if you are interested, but in terms of prestige with college admissions, it's not going to help.</p>
