⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Remarkable Experience with Alliance Abroad — A Parent’s Perspective
As a parent, choosing the right international experience for my child was one of the most important decisions I’ve had to make — and I couldn’t be more grateful that we chose Alliance Abroad. From the very beginning, their focus on meaningful cultural exchange and global opportunity really stood out to us. What truly impressed me was how they framed these opportunities not just as jobs, but as life-enriching experiences. seeing my child return with greater independence and a global perspective has been one of the most rewarding outcomes of the journey — and I’m extremely thankful for Alliance Abroad’s role in that experience.
My GF she had amazing experience with Alliance Abroad she got a J1 visa for Intern easly when she was a Tourism student and next year 2026 she will join as Trainee again.
Avoid at all costs!
I was misled by Michael, who provided inaccurate information just to get our money. Upon further investigation, I noticed their Mara logo on the website, but the registration number was intentionally blanked out — a huge red flag. Do yourself a favour and choose a properly registered, trustworthy professional. Look for someone who is Mara registered and transparent about their credentials.
1 star only because I can't rate zero. Do not ever think to deal with them. All they want is your money; after paying, they don't give a F*** about you and your application.
My story: I wanted to apply for the Work and Travel program in the USA. I had been thinking a lot before that because the money I had to spend was not small for me. But you can ask what exactly made me do it, and I'll answer: the manager. The man whose task is only to fool people and make them pay for the program. He said that with my situation, I would get my visa in 100%, and there is no chance of rejection. So, I paid $300 for registration, and then they worked with me, helping with everything. The manager texted me every day. However, after I paid the full sum, around $1500, nobody gives a ****. They gave some instructions and disappeared. If you want something, just send an email and wait three or more days (they don't work on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and never answer you in these days). Anyways, I signed a job offer, passed the interview, and left only one little thing to do (exactly what the manager said): to get my visa.
So, with a group of 5 Ukrainians, I stood near the USA embassy and waited. The officer rejected me within 3 minutes; he didn't ask anything important, just rejected. In our group, only 1 girl got a visa. Then the manager said, 'Ah, you were just unlucky; you can try one more time in another city.' As you can guess, everything was almost the same. So, my plans were ruined, half of the money gone, and my dream to visit the USA disappeared. Including everything, I've spent $2200 and got back only around $1250. The funny thing is that after some time, they asked me about buying the program for the next year with "full return policy". No thanks)
They paint the cultural exchange as something very nice but at the end of the day if something happens to you or you get fired unfairly like me in the middle of the program, there is no one to help you. They didn't lift a finger to help me find a new job when they had the power to do so. I think they are more interested in being good to the companies they offer workers to. In general I felt abandoned by them and I am sure there are worse companies but I also know of some that are far more efficient.
These people take the deposit money and then stop responding to the emails and calls. Too many people have experienced this. It needs to be fixed. They are playing with people's emotions in the name of jobs.
