AYUSA Global Youth Exchange

Description

AYUSA (Academic Year in the U.S.A.) is a 501.c(3) non-profit youth exchange organization which offers students aged 15 to 18 the opportunity to live with volunteer host families and to study in local high schools for an academic year or semester. Our exchange program offer a uniquely rich personal experience for our students, volunteer families, host high schools, and local communities around the world. Collectively, the AYUSA family reaches across interpersonal and international borders and celebrates worldwide community through the spirit, character and promise of our youth. Since 1980, AYUSA has promoted global understanding by reaching into areas of the world where student exchange was not possible before. This year, AYUSA will welcome students to the U.S. from over 60 countries, including countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Pacific. American students will study abroad with AYUSA in over 13 countries.
