Foreign student exchange programs are so popular because they provide students with a plethora of life-changing opportunities. These programs enable students to learn a new language, become independent and knowledgeable, discover another culture, develop lifelong leadership skills, and change their perspective of the world altogether for better. Despite being eligible for certain programs, some students miss excellent opportunities due to various reasons, including their parent’s apprehensions about the safety of their children and the money involved. Rotary Youth Exchange, on the other hand, has earned the trust and reliance, as it is a safe, affordable, and amazing foreign student exchange program.

While providing insight into Rotary Youth Exchange, their spokesperson stated, “Designed for 15 to 19 years old students, Rotary Youth Exchange is an exchange program that Rotary clubs sponsor in more than 100 countries. Rotary Youth Exchange study abroad programs and scholarships strive to transform students into global students while offering them incredible experiences.

Students have to be leaders in their schools and communities for participating in our foreign student exchange programs.”

Short-term student exchange programs are generally in the form of international youth camps, tours, homestays, and family-to-family exchanges.

Other inclusions are airport transfers on arrival and departure, 24/7 emergency assistance, whereas program fee, and passport and visa application fee, while primary travel and medical insurance are the exclusions.”
