I want to go to France as a foreign exchange student?
Does anyone know any websites that I could go to about this? Like, to set it up. My mom says she would be fine with it, but I need to figure everything out first. I'm not looking to go until next year, probably, and not for a long time, just for a month. I'm also only 14 and a freshman in highschool.

Real exchanges are for a semester or year. Any less than that is really not an exchange and most likely would not be approved by your school. The top three programs are AFS, YFU and Rotary. Any one of these would be good to use. You should consider your junior year for the exchange. Good luck! EDIT: To TG. If you have a choice and can change do NOT, I repeat NOT, use Two Worlds United! It is one of the worst -- not even csiet listed! http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/study-abroad/two-worlds-united-36786.html http://www.myexperiencewithtwoworldsunited.com/ http://www.cultures-shocked.org/forum/archive/index.php?t-225.html

So do I, but I wouldn't go as a sophomore, go as a Junior. sophomore year and freshman year are important. junior/senior are too but, ya know! Check with the counselor. He/She will know!

I'm middle eastern, so I need visas everywhere (lucky me). But I have a residence permit in France, so I can travel to other EU countries without a visa, right

Correct. You do not need a visa to visit Germany. You should bring along your passport and your residence permit and be prepared to show them in case asked.

it would depend.Since so many different countries have their own rules with them.That's true that there is an Internationally recognized rules but there are some rules for their own too. SO the best thing would be asking from them directly.After that there would not be any matter regarding this.

Maybe one of these organizations can help you: - wep - afs - yfu (youth for understanding All three are exchange organisations. I know them because I'm planning to become an exchange student too. I live in Belgium and I was thinking of going to Switzerland for a year. Good luck ;).

Being an exchange student is an experience unlike any other! I am a 5-time host mom and new volunteer with Youth For Understanding (YFU). Please forgive my bias for YFU, but when I've asked exchange students (both coming into the USA and leaving the USA) why they picked YFU, they basically said that YFU gave them more bang for their buck. My biggest piece of advice is to travel with a program listed with the Council for Standards on International Educational Travel (csiet.org). They routinely audit programs for quality. If you have not chosen a program with which to travel, I humbly and respectfully recommend YFU. Check out the website (yfu-usa.org) - it has an incredible amount of information. It has program details, requirements (age, language study, etc.), costs, links to contact former exchange students (and their parents), information on how to apply, etc. There is also a "For Parents" area. One thing I like about this area is that it shows where the money goes - 37% goes for airfare and traveling assistance...only 5% for 'overhead'. I will have to warn you that France is one of the few countries that requires previous language study (2 years by the time you go). Talk to you teachers and parents, check out the website, and good luck to you no matter what you choose!
