Host an Exchange Student!
Bring a world of culture to your family
and watch a common interest become a shared bond.
Imagine the fun of hosting an international teen who loves the same things you do! We'll help you find the right exchange student for your family to have a fun and enriching experience.
Here's how hosting works:
- The exchange student lives as a member of your family (not a guest or boarder), participates in family life, and attends the local high school
- Students come with medical insurance and spending money to cover personal expenses like school fees, phone, clothing, etc.
- Host families provide room & board and loving parental guidance (and are eligible for a tax deduction)
- A Local Coordinator will provide support and assistance to you and your student throughout the hosting experience
- YOU select the student you want to host. We will gladly help you find a student, or you can visit Meet Our Students to browse or search for students by country, age, gender, religion, or interests.
