How to be a foreign exchange student
It made me
 "Hardest thing I've ever done, but worth every moment"
How I did it: I applied to Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange and was accepted with a full scholarship. There were two applications and an interview. Not difficult at all. Lessons & tips: Try EVERYTHING. |

Foreign exchange.
2 years ago
I participated in a foreign exchange in Cornwall, England for 10 months and it was the best experience I’ve had in my life. I would highly recommend going on one, if you ever have the opportunity. If you are in high school, there are plenty of exchange programs that you can go through, so don’t let age be a factor (I was 16). Cultural Homestay International is a very good company to go through (from America to other countries). It can be a little expensive, but you learn so many things about culture, communication, and even yourself! I just got back about two months ago and I feel so much more confident and worldly than I would have, had I not gone. It is definitely worthwhile and the friends you make can stay with you for life!

I would really love to go away for a year, to spain or france. It’s just it’s quite expensive and my dad really isn’t supportive of the idea, it’s sad. I really want to go.
yeah it's not gonna happen.

well actually my grade point average isnt whats holding me back. it’s the $12,000 fees. and seeing as there’s no way I could get that much money in a years time I don’t think I’m going.
SO GREAT

I was an exhcnage student in Japan for 2 months the summer ater I turned 15. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I really recomment that everyone travel as much as possible. It is more fun, educational, and enlightening than any other thing.
