Summer Study Abroad Programs for High Schoolers: There's Still Time

A study abroad experience is a valuable addition to a college application, and so much more. If you're in high school or about to graduate, there's still time to apply for a summer study abroad program or 'gap year' experience.

AFS-USA, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, has been leading international high school student exchange for more than 60 years. They are currently wrapping up our sending season, where they offer American high school students the opportunity to apply for programs to study abroad. There is still time to apply for several of their programs, including programs for this summer, which offer students the opportunity to learn about another country, become part of a local community, and see the world.

AFS has been sending high school students abroad for 60 years. Can't decide where to go? Let AFS provide advice or connect you with students who have just returned. Financial aid is still available, especially if you let AFS suggest destinations for you. Call 1-800-AFSINFO today or visit www.afs.org/usa to learn more.
