Studying abroad, for whatever period, indeed is one of the most beneficial experiences in a student’s life. They get an opportunity to study in a foreign land amidst new people while finding new food items, customs, traditions, and social atmospheres. The biggest reason that lures students to enroll for study abroad programs is the opportunity to see the world. Not surprisingly, many universities and organizations offer different types of study abroad programs. Rotary NAYEN (North American Youth EXCHANGE Network) has set benchmarks in terms of offering safe, affordable, and amazing Rotary Youth Exchange study abroad programs and scholarships.

Providing information about the Rotary Youth Exchange programs and scholarships, the company spokesperson stated, “Rotary Youth Exchange study abroad programs and scholarships are lucrative opportunities created for 15 to 19 years old students who are leaders in their schools and communities. Rotary clubs in more than 100 countries sponsor these exchange programs, which strive to transform students into global students. While in the foreign land during the exchange programs, students develop lifelong leadership skills and build lasting friendships with young people from across the globe.”

Rotary Youth Exchange programs are of two types – long-term exchanges and short-term exchanges. Based on the individual requirements, taste, and preferences, students can make a choice between short-term exchange in the summer, a full academic year of high school, or a gap year. The experience begins a year before for the students participating in Rotary Youth Exchange high school study abroad programs, as they go through the application, selection, and preparation process. Students study at a local high school, get to live with as many as three or four carefully selected and trained host families and become proficient in a new language during their academic year abroad.

The spokesperson added, “Our study abroad programs make students bicultural and bilingual, and forever change their perspective of the world they live in. The long-term Rotary Youth Exchange programs last a full academic year and make students attend local schools and live with multiple host families. For a clearer picture of our student exchange programs, students can contact their nearest rotary club or can count on our website to read the journals of Rotary Youth Exchange study-abroad scholars who are already living their dream.”

Rotary Youth Exchange high school summer travel abroad programs are short-term summer exchanges that vary in length from several days to several weeks. They are of four types – homestays, tours, family-to-family, and international youth camps, during which students usually don’t attend school in a host country. However, they may be able to tailor the exchange to match their interests or include tours of specific places or regions.
