Rotary Youth Exchange is out on a mission to build global citizens and in turn, enhance peace by focusing on one young high school student at a time. The organization that works under the larger Rotary Club runs an outstanding exchange program which targets the young people in North America. Over the years, Rotary Youth Exchange has, in turn, helped thousands of students be study-abroad scholars who got to live the dream.

Speaking about why their program presents an opportunity that can never be ignored, the Company’s Spokesperson said, “The world is currently a digital village given the ease with which information easily flows from one region to the other in a matter of seconds. For young people, this has come with the benefit of having a better knowledge of what takes place in different countries. However, it is one thing to have information within fingertips and another to get to experience a new culture plus interactions with peers from foreign nations. Our program gives you a chance for immersive experiences which can never be substituted for any other activity.”

The pleasures of the life-changing experiences which the exchange programs by Rotary Youth Exchange present are not limited to full academic years abroad but also include high school summer abroad. Short-term summer exchanges are equally involving and are pre-tailored to suit the interests of all students who get to have lots of fun while in a foreign country. Rotary Youth Exchange has the programs vary in length from a few days to several weeks and typically includes homestays, tours, international youth camps, and family-to-family.

Speaking about their exciting study abroad scholarships, the Company Spokesperson said, “We know finances might be a hindrance when it comes to having an opportunity to be a foreign exchange student and that is why we have tailor-made scholarships. Among the key features of the scholarships are free hosting by a foreign Rotary club, airport transfers, primary tuition & placement in local schools, 24-hour emergency assistance, homestay accommodation, and a monthly stipend. The parents and students will only be responsible for the basics that include Visa application fees & airfare, primary insurance, and program fees which varied depending on the Rotary district.”

The thrills of having memorable adventures and first-hand experience of different cultures are more than sufficient to make any student apply for the summer study abroad programs by Rotary Youth Exchange. All students that have taken part in the program have equally gone ahead to have a better world perspective and sharpen their leadership skills. Rotary Youth Exchange works with an ever-growing number of students each year, and because of this, all interested participants are expected to make applications as early as possible.
