Program Reviews:
Spring 2024 Participant
My favorite part of CIMBA is the small-town feeling and campus that provides a very comforting community of students. I enjoyed getting to know every person in the program since we were always together in one building, so I met a lot of lifelong friendships and connections. I also enjoyed getting to travel every weekend with all my friends and see different cultures.

Summer 2026 Participant
I thought the courses were very rewarding due to the heavy work load taking a semester course in 4 weeks entails.

Summer 2026 Participant
My favorite part of this program was being able to be in smaller classroom settings with new people from different schools, I was able to meet a lot of great friends through my classes and travel with them during the program.
