Youth Exchange applications accepted

Rotary Youth Exchange applications are now being accepted for the school year 2025-2026.

Current high school students are invited to apply to be an Outbound Student with the Rotary Youth Exchange (RYE) for the 2025-26 academic year. For 50 years, the RYE has been building peace worldwide, one young person at a time. Participants learn a new language, discover another culture, make life-long friends, and truly become global citizens. Long-term exchanges last a full academic year; students attend local schools and live with multiple host families. Interested students can learn more at https://www.rye6970.org/study-abroad/. Applications are due November 1, 2024. Prospective participants and parents must attend an informational meeting either in person or via Zoom. Questions can be directed to Inez Grbowski or Dan Rodkin, Outbound Co-chairs for District 6970, at [email protected] and [email protected].
