Youth Exchange offers opportunities

MARQUETTE -Spending time abroad as an exchange student is one of the most unique opportunities available to young people. An exchange will provide opportunities to grow in new ways and experience a new culture and ideas.

The purpose of the Rotary Youth Exchange program is to provide secondary school students with the opportunity to travel abroad, live with host families, and experience life firsthand in a different country, school, and social environment. Exchange students will gain lifelong advantages through an expanded world view and greater appreciation of the world.

The Rotary Youth Exchange program is open to high school students, or those who have just graduated, between the ages of 15 and 18.5 on departure (as of Aug. 15 in the year of departure). The program is open to children of Rotarians and non-Rotarians alike. Exchange student candidates must be outgoing, self-confident, friendly, adaptable, and adventurous, willing to learn a foreign language, with above average grades in school.
