Select Exchange Programs in the USA

Your program, your way

Your exchange program in the USA can shape the rest of your life. Why not tailor it to your interests and ambitions? With Select High School, you can.

Start by selecting where you want to go. You can either search for schools offering what you’re looking for or search your ideal location for the right school. Either way, you determine what happens in your life as an American high school student.

Southern Cross Cultural Exchange offers an extensive selection of high schools for exchange students in the USA. We’re confident you’ll find a school that delivers the academic challenge and extracurricular fun you’re after.

Once your place at the high school is secured, we’ll match you with a local host family. They’ll provide a safe and enriching springboard into American culture. You will have a host family you can rely on for support and guidance throughout your exchange.

Your challenge is deciding where you want to go!

Perfect for students who:

  • Want full control to be matched with the perfect high school
  • Want to be placed in a specific location
  • Plan to join specific sports, clubs, and activities
  • Intend to study particular subjects and advanced classes

Find a program that will shape your future

Select High School puts you in control of your exchange. It’s up to you where you go, what you study, and how you spend your time. But it’s not always easy to make these decisions, especially when they’ll set the scene for a truly life-changing adventure.

You and your parents may also have different ideas about what’s important and how your time abroad should unfold. That’s okay, it happens a lot. It’s best to let everyone speak their mind and then come to us to help you find the right balance of must-haves and nice-to-haves.

Let Southern Cross Cultural Exchange help you. We’re the high school experts.

Looking for something different?

Like our Select Program, the Academic Exchange program offers the flexibility and relatively greater ease of coming to the US under an F-1 visa – the most common visa status for exchange students in the US. But there are two key differences: with an Academic Exchange, you can’t choose a specific school. And you pay less than you would with the Select Program.
