Students' testimonials

What is it actually like to spend a high school year abroad? No one knows or can explain it better than the people who have gone on a high school exchange themselves. That’s why we let several of our students tell us about their year abroad, as you can read about below.

Also, don’t miss our social media channels! Follow @stsworldwide on TikTok and Instagram to get a true feel for what a high school year abroad is really like. We have our students take over our channels every week and it is full of our students’ real-life stories. Follow to see how an exchange year can change your life!
