Exchange Student

I was wondering, since I will be starting high school soon, is there anyway I can be an exchange student to Japan? I would like to go there and study the language!=] I would appreciate an answer!

I highly recommend Intrax Study Abroad, Ema! :)

It's relatively expensive, but overall worth it, in my opinion, considering all of the expenses the cost covers. I will be doing it for a semester in 10th grade! :)

When I was in high school (80's), my father was a member of Rotary International. We hosted a number of students through them, from Mexico, Denmark, Brazil and Japan. My sister went to Mexico for her senior year. I recommend you contact your local Rotary Club and see if they still have the program.

There are many exchange programs around the world. Perhaps if you tell us where you are we can provide you with more detailed information.

i second the rotary mention. all of the high schoolers in my city are here through rotary.

Rotary is great! I myself went to japan with rotary and it was very organized and everything.

AFS also have programs. Most AFS students hate Rotary...because rotary is by far better! :-)

Thank you, everyone! I will take your advice and check out these websites and programs. But who exactly would I have to talk to? Like school wise, here and in Japan?
