I’m pleased to report that the District interviews for the long term exchange program went very well. It’s great to meet the new students. We are now hard at work to solidify placements in the different countries and by late February/early March, notifications will go out.
I’m writing to you now about the Short Term Exchange Program (STEP). We have interest from Austria, Belgium, Italy, Finland, Germany, Hungary and Scotland. This program carries NO COST to your club. It provides a family-to-family exchange with one student spending 3-4 weeks in the country of choice and then returning with a student from the family that he/she stayed with to have 3-4 weeks together here.
A number of you have already communicated interest in Short Term YE, and we are now moving forward with final recruitment and interview processes.
For more information on the Short Term Exchange Program, please visit the 7090 Youth Exchange website and the application can be found HERE .
Applications for the STEP program are due by February 1st and interviews of club candidates will take place on Saturday, February 7.
