Student Exchange & Study Abroad

Student exchange programs give young people the opportunity to attend school in another country, develop language skills and experience everyday life in a different culture. This category brings together websites offering international school exchanges, study abroad programs and information about spending a semester or academic year overseas.

Students and parents can also find resources covering program costs, preparation, insurance, travel arrangements and the challenges of adapting to a new school environment. Personal experiences and reports from former exchange students may help families understand what to expect.

The category includes exchange organizations, educational institutions, nonprofit initiatives and independent information services.
