What makes a good study abroad program?

<p>Hello all!</p>

<p>I have a D15, she is a freshman in highschool and is very interested in going abroad next summer(2012)… are any of you familiar/have any advice on selecting a program for highschool students? We have looked into YFU, SYA and Oxbridge…all of which seem like they would suit her needs… however the Oxbridge program has “dorm” styly accomodations where the students live together… so there would be no immersion so to speak…The languages that she is currently studying are… Italian(1st year), Spanish(3rd yr)… she is also studying Latin(I know that the Oxbridge/Cambridge has a Latin/Greek program)… I guess I should mention that she only wants to do this in the summer… she feels that a semester/year would be far too long… </p>

<p>Any advice would be much appreciated!</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
