A Study-abroad Opportunity for Young People

Share your own culture, embrace a new one

Host an Exchange Student in Your Home

MAKING A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE

ONE STUDENT AT A TIME

As a Rotary Youth Exchange student, you’ll spend up to a year living with a few host families and attending school in a different country. You are a student ambassador helping bring understanding and peace to our global community.

Whether you participate in Rotary’s long-term or short-term Youth Exchange programs, you’ll learn a new way of living, a great deal about yourself, and maybe even a new language. You’ll also be an ambassador, teaching people you meet about your country, culture, and ideas. You can help bring the world closer – and make some good friends in the process.

More than 8,000 young people each year have experiences like these through Rotary Youth Exchange. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime. Are you ready for it?

Are you:

  • … interested in being a Goodwill Ambassador to another country?

  • … between the ages of 15-18?

  • … interested in learning about another country, living in it, making new friends, and experiencing new things?

Rotary Youth Exchange might be for you!
