In a world moving at fast speeds, with industries going global and colleges and employers demanding intercultural competence, your teen can benefit greatly from studying abroad.  

Your teen is now at their peak of open-mindedness and adaptability. Doing a cultural immersion program while in high school will set them up for even greater growth in a language, a more global perspective, and better preparedness for their future career. Read more about Program Outcomes.

However, it should still be your teen鈥檚 decision! Some feel ready at 14 while others are better prepared a little later on. We accept all teens (age 14+) currently enrolled in high school as freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. If your teen isn't ready to go abroad after finishing their freshman year of high school, there's plenty of time the following years!

The majority of 黑料网911Global Navigator program participants are in their junior and senior year of high school, and about 20% of our participants are rising sophomores.
