- welcome to my EF high school exchange year story, in five minutes 💌 back in 2021, I became an EF high school exchange student in the USA, and it was undoubtedly the best decision I have ever made. It has not been easy, but in the end, it's all worth it. I will forever be grateful for all the memories I have gotten to experience, lessons I have learned, and people I have met because of this exchange year. thank you for everything america and thank you to EF for changing my life. #efclassof22 @EFHighSchoolYear @efexchangeyear_sverige @efexchangeyear

i have really bad social anxiety but I still do really wanna do an exchange year in the US before it's too late.
you will really regret it if you don’t do it, and you’ll grow so much socially
Wow
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Greetings from our family- Kapiso Mo Vlog
thank you!!
Amazing video 🤩
i just cried
wait, i have a question. so i really want to do an exchange year maybe in grade 10 or 11 (i'm finishing 9 right now). how long is the process between finding out you get to go and actually going? because i noticed at the start of the video you said you found out at the end of 2019 and went halfway through 2021 - is this how long it all takes? or was it postponed due to covid or other stuff? because with this schedule if i apply this year I'll only be able to go two years from now - is this the earliest you can do?
the process is usually faster, in my case it was later because of covid!! I would suggest starting applying around a year before departure:)
This video is incredible 😭❤️ I have a question, I really want to go with EF too but I don’t really understand it, do I select “EF language year abroad”? If I do, it’ll place me into a public school right? Not the EF campus?
hii, thank you so much!!🥺 you should choose “EF exchange year” if you want to be placed in a public school. you can show EF that you’re interested in going on an exchange year by using this link: bit.ly/32qQjow ❤️
@@aliciafuchstrantidis thank you so so much!! They don’t have any exchange programs now, I think I have to wait until admissions open up
@@marina_varnava no problem!!❤you should be able to show your interest and request a free brochure using my link, and later apply! admissions should be open all year round:)
@@aliciafuchstrantidis I cannot thank you enough, I didn’t know about this! I’m so glad you had such an amazing time, I hope so much I’ll achieve that too someday
thank you!! I wish you all the luck!!❤️
Hi Alicia , can we continue our study in USA after completing the yes program
Hi, I have never heard of the yes program before so I suggest you to reach out to someone with more information.
Hello, I don't know if you will see this message but I currently live in France. I can't speak English. Did you know how to speak English before going to America or did you learn everything there in class?
Hi! Yes I knew how to speak English before, but it got way better after my year in America. In Sweden we start learning English at an early age in school:)
Do you think I can only do it with the base I have? Because I don't want to lose it in class
I think you need to have at least an understanding in English before you go, but you’ll learn a lot during your time there as well.
I need your support
It’s so expensive please tell me does it have financial aid or help with money?
you could reach out to your local EF office for scholarships etc!
I love the way how you did this video, it's soo nice!🤍
thank you so much💕💕
Do they offer scholarships?
Beautiful video. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Say hi to Rogier for me
Hello, I also want to come there, but my English is not very good. Can you give me some information about this? please
Hi, your English definitely doesn’t have to be perfect to go there, it’s fine as long as you can make yourself understood. You are there to learn better English and you definitely will improve so much!!
most people hear in America cant speak English well tbh,so as long as you know the basic words and phrases you can fill in the rest as you get more experince.
How does one become an exchange student???? Who did u "exchange"???
Start out by finding an exchange organization that you like and contact them! I went with the company EF.
its the "exchange" of ideas, relations and language. It's about the experiences in the host countries to the students countries as a way to show diversity and different ideas
👍
With what company did you go ?
EF!
How much does it cost?😮💨
check with your local EF office for the exact prices, as it has changed since I went on my exchange year! but expect at least 10 000 euros.
