Why Choose AFS-USA?
With a global network covering more than 40 countries and over 75 years of high school exchange experience, AFS-USA is devoutly committed to providing high school students with an authentic international immersion experience. When students go abroad with AFS, they are offered the unique opportunity of experiencing immersion in another culture, practicing second languages with native speakers, adapting to new customs, and discovering new strengths. Studying abroad with AFS not only develops intercultural awareness and communication skills, but students can also uncover new passions and make friendships that span continents. Our 100+ programs are led by locals and supported by a vast volunteer network. This means that whatever program students choose—whether it’s a 1-3-week deep dive into global issues like environmental conservation or sustainability, or 10 months living with a host family and attending a local high school—the experience will provide unique insights that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
