Rotary District 6600 Youth Exchange Program is part of the 14 District “Ohio-Erie Multi-District Lakes to Oceans” Committee. All our inbound and outbound students come and go through this organization, made up of Rotarians committed to Rotary Youth Exchange in 14 districts and 6 states.
Are you interested in learning more about becoming an exchange student?
As a Rotary Youth Exchange Student, you’ll spend up to a year living with a few host families and attending school in a different country. More than 8,000 young people each year have experience like these through Rotary Youth Exchange. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime!
Rotary has two programs, a short-term exchange program that lasts a month and a long-term exchange program that lasts for an academic school year. Regardless of which program you participate in, you’ll learn a new way of living, a great deal about yourself, and maybe even a new language. You’ll also be an ambassador, teaching people you meet about your country, culture, and idea. You can help bring the world closer – and make some good friends in the process.
For over 75 years, students and host families have broadened their horizons through Rotary Youth Exchange.
More than 80 countries and over 8,000 students each year participate in the program, which is administered at the regional level by Rotary districts and at the local level by Rotary clubs.
