Boarding School Program
A traditional North American private school, where students live on campus, is an exciting, high-quality, versatile, and safe option for spending an exchange year.
This program is the only option that guarantees students the opportunity to continue their
sport, arts, and other activities during their exchange year at a level that matches their
wishes, abilities and goals. Life on campus emphasizes a strong sense of community and
school spirit where everyone feels like part of one big host family. Together with friends,
everything needed for studying, hobbies, fun, and everyday living is located close by.
A private boarding school is an investment in a successful exchange year and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
By choosing a private school and living on campus, your experience is built around a structured and supportive environment without the uncertainties that can come with host family arrangements.
You can influence what you want your exchange year to include and where you would like to spend it. This means you will know well in advance where your exchange year will take place and what to expect when you arrive, allowing you to truly shape your own experience.

Receive a personalized budget plan
Before acceptance into the program, we create a personalized study plan and realistic budget together with you and your parents.
We do not provide standard fixed pricing from schools. Instead, we negotiate individually with schools based on each student’s goals, preferences, and financial situation to find the most suitable option.
Scholarship amounts vary between schools and depend on several factors, one of the most important being the family’s annual income.
