High School Academic Program

The High School Academic Program is for international students to study and live abroad. Students can extend their stay until the completion of their studies.

With ICES Cambodia, students can study for a full-academic year or more in a local high school (public or private) in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, etc.

Unlike the exchange program, students can choose the school that they want to study in or the city or state of interest.
