I’ve been going through CCUSA for my J1 visa for the past 2 summers now going on third and they make the seeming daunting experience so smooth, all the instructions laid out and so easy to follow along with a very helpful team if you have any questions. Highly recommend going with CCUSA if you’re considering doing a summer camp abroad!

I would 100% encourage you to use CCUSA if you are thinking of applying to summer camps. They were so helpful in directing me what to do and instructing me on how to do it! It was very easy using them because they were always checking on how I was doing and if I needed any help!

Fabulous Experience with CCUSA

I had wanted to experience camp counselling in America for a long time. This came to fruition in 2022 when CCUSA supported me and I was placed at a fabulous camp in New Hampshire called Camp Hawkeye. The process was made more simple by all the support which CCUSA provided. Caity is absolutely fabulous and was available on WhatsApp whenever I needed some advice. I work as a teacher full time so didn't have time to trawl through mountains of bureaucracy, so the personal contact was invaluable to keep me on the right track. The website is easy to use and chunks what needs completed; this makes what could be quite a complex process far more manageable. The time saving aspect and ease of use was incredibly important to me successfully navigating the US visa system.

Even after a struggle when arriving in a

A special shout-out to Dave King: who really is an inspiration and I commend him for promoting CCUSA and having a huge part in the process. It’s something everyone should experience. There is so much to see in this big world and CCUSA make it possible.

Outstanding Camp Support: CCUSA and Dave Exceeds Expectations

I recently had the pleasure of working with CCUSA, and I must say that my experience was truly exceptional. From the very beginning, Dave’s professionalism and expertise made a significant impact on my journey.

Dave’s commitment to ensuring customer satisfaction was evident from our initial interactions. He promptly addressed all my inquiries with a level of detail and assistance that surpassed my expectations. His deep knowledge and understanding of the camp program were truly impressive.

What impressed me the most was Dave’s remarkable efficiency. He effortlessly handled all the necessary arrangements and paperwork, ensuring a seamless and timely process. Even when unexpected challenges arose, Dave skillfully navigated them, leaving me with complete peace of mind.

CCUSA has been an invaluable partner in my camp experiences. With their assistance, I have been able to attend camp for four summers, and I cannot express enough gratitude for their unwavering support. Their dedication to helping individuals like me embark on unforgettable adventures is truly commendable.

Throughout my interactions with CCUSA, they consistently delivered on their promises. Their level of service and support far exceeded my expectations. It is evident that they genuinely care about their customers and are willing to go above and beyond to ensure a hassle-free experience.

I wholeheartedly recommend CCUSA to anyone seeking a reliable and trustworthy organisation to help them pursue their camp aspirations. With their knowledgeable team, streamlined processes, and exceptional customer service, CCUSA has proven to be the epitome of excellence.

To Dave and the entire CCUSA team, thank you for your tireless efforts in creating unforgettable camp experiences. I am sincerely grateful for everything you have done to make my dreams a reality.

Can’t recommend CCUSA highly enough

This will be the second summer I go to America with CCUSA and I can’t recommend them enough. They have friendly, helpful and enthusiastic staff who are always there to answer any questions you have. They help you out with everything you need for summer and support you along the way. Definitely the best agency out there for sure!

Best Camp Agency Ever

CCUSA made the whole 'going to camp' experience so easy. They are there for you every step of the way and are always willing to help (especially Dave). I have spoken to other people who have used different agencies and they have not had the same support that CCUSA provides.
I would only ever use CCUSA.

The support and encouragement from CCUSA is something else!

I genuinely cannot express how invaluable the support has been from CCUSA during the process of applying to a camp in Maine, USA to teach tennis this coming summer. Any personal queries or concerns where immediately answered via email or Whatsapp, and I have felt very reassured every single step of the way. What I particularly like about CCUSA is the highly personal approach that they adopt and I do not believe that I would have been able to navigate the challenging visa process without the tremendous amounts of support from CCUSA! Thank you so so much!
