The Western News | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 5 years, 12 months AGO
Academic Year in America is seeking families to host high school-aged students from all around the world next school year, starting in August.
The students speak English, have full medical insurance, pay for their own personal needs, and come well recommended by the schools in their home country.
Students are aged 15 to 18 years, and families may choose the gender, nationality and age of their student.
Academic Year in America is one of the oldest and most reliable student travel/study programs in the U.S. One of its founders was the late Sen. Robert Kennedy.
