Working at an American Summer Camp with CCUSA (Camp Counselors USA).
CCUSA have been sending UK students on work and travel adventures for over 30 years, and are the top summer camp and international work adventure specialist. When you travel around the world with them, you know that you’ll be in safe hands! They specialise in sending thousands of 18-30 year olds to summer camps in America & Canada, but their work doesn’t stop there. CCUSA offer summer camps in China, Croatia and Russia too. Expect lots of laughs, late nights, amazing adventures and life-changing memories.
I first applied to go to America with CCUSA back in 2014. 5 years later, I never thought that I would be going back for my SIXTH summer at my home away from home. Going away for the summer to America was an amazing experience. I highly recommend that students at Huddersfield University take the leap and try something new! CCUSA work with over 700 summer camps in America and Canada, so whatever your interests, they will find a camp which you will love!At camp, I get to try activities such as sports, arts, waterfront, outdoor adventure and camping trips! I’ve made friends from Australia, Israel, New Zealand, Columbia and America. Pretty awesome right?
I’ll tell you a few reasons why I keep returning to camp with CCUSA, and why they are the most student-friendly company:
CCUSA have the LOWEST fees and pay the HIGHEST wages! CCUSA’s fees start at just £299 and you can earn up to $1745 over the summer. This makes them the cheapest J1 visa sponsor in the UK! All of your food and accommodation is included at camp, so you’ll have loads of money to travel after camp!
CCUSA are an official J1 Visa Sponsor - This means they are the only company you will deal with, from when you first apply, through to when you return back home after your summer. This means you will get to know the office staff and they will never pass you onto a 3rd party company.
CCUSA Worldwide Offices – Whether you’re traveling the world or here in the UK, they have offices all-round the globe. This means that CCUSA hire people from many countries and bring them together at summer camp. This give you and I the chance to make friends from the other side of the world.
CCUSA’s 100% Placement Rate – Over the last 5 years, everyone who has been accepted onto the program has been placed at summer camp! CCUSA are the only company with this record! If you want to go to camp, it’s gotta be CCUSA! I felt safe knowing that their team would find me a dream camp, and they sure did!
CCUSA have a Personal Approach – Everyone who works for CCUSA has been to summer camp! Their staff are kind, helpful and so knowledgeable…because they have years of personal experience! They’re a small team based in Leeds and are happy to have a brew with you, answer your questions over the phone and get you hired!
