Has anybody ever gotten their first choice for the rotary club exchange?

Is it too late to apply to Rotary Youth Exchange?

  • I'm currently a junior in high school. Originally, I wanted to participate in Rotary's long term Youth Exchange program during my junior year, but that didn't fall through because my mom was worried I was "too young." I recently brought up the idea to my parents again, and they just gave me the "ok" to try and apply to go abroad my senior year of high school. I just contacted my local Rotary club and I'm hoping it isn't too late. It's January 2012 right now... so if I want to go during my senior year of high school, 2012-2013, do you think it's too late to apply? I just want to know if I should get my hopes up. I know it kind of differs from district to district, but if you've been a part of RYE already, hopefully you can give me an idea? Waiting for my local club to contact me back is killing me, haha :P Also, if I'm applying this late, what is the chance of me getting my first or second choice? I really want to go to Japan.

  • Answer:

    I don't know about WEP, but I suggest you check out www.best-student-exchange.com, because they have hundreds of families online who want ot exchange and you can stay in different countries with various families (like family-hopping) and best of all: the price is peanuts compared to usual agencies, because you arrange the exchange yourself and with that you save thousands of $. So I think it is the best program out there. I went to Europe and it rocked!
