Curious about high school exchange but not quite ready for a full school year abroad? Get a taste of the exchange experience through our Short Programs. These are available for 3, 2.5, 2 months and 6 weeks in some destinations. Please see each destination pricing page for details.
Note for NSW Students (only)
NSW Student Exchange Guidelines consider exchange programs to be a minimum of 10 weeks abroad. NSW students who prefer a shorter duration are eligible to apply for our high school 2 Month / 6 Week programs. Please be aware that we abide by the same regulatory conditions for all programs, however in NSW these are considered cultural immersion programs, rather than student exchange programs.
The best way to prepare for your exchange program is to join an Information Session Webinar.
