Thank you so much! I was just signing the papers and the rules worried me a bit. I don't pretend to break any of them but they seemed rlly strict, especially the no dating one.
Well it's more complicated. You are allowed to go on dates but they dont want you in a serious relationship. This is because you will spend all ur time with them and it will be hard to come home. They encourage you to have a date to prom and stuff
Yeah, the main thing is that they’re worried you’ll be seeing the country from your significant other’s view, and not get to experience what you want on your own.
When you guys say it like that it makes sense but in my district everything is so different. They told us no dating at all, also the country choice will be done by raffle, are your districts like this also? I'm kind of worried about this
Nat Ddcf Nah, my district has you fill out a top 5 list, and they rank you compared to other students based off your interviews and applications, which determines who gets higher on their list, because there are only so many spots open for each country.
@@onlypain.4505 do you still get the country you want to fo to though?? Because I've always been interested going to japan but its a shame if i get a completely different country.
Hey Queen! We actually have seven “D”s now!
1: No drinking
2: No driving
3: No dating
4: No drugs
5: No decorating (tattoos or piercing)
6: No downloading (make sure you understand how WiFi works in your country and don’t get a virus)
7: No ditching (no leaving the area you are designated to stay in without authorization)
I'm currently an exchnage student in Germany and thinking about the rules know makes me laugh. Our rotary district encourages us to drink and 6 kids got arrested and nothing happened to them with rotary 😂👍🏼
hahahah if the coronavirus stops, luckily im going to germany at the end of the year... which district are u?
What city in Germany?
@@faqndo are you still going?
@@user-ih2uc2ji8i hope so😫
Facundo Coria I participated in a different exchange program but it got cancelled for some students (I’m one of them :( )
Thank you so much!! I'm leaving for Chile in about 6 months and this video really clarified things from an exchange students perspective.
this video is so good!! Thank you for the tips!
Thank u so much! I might be going on exchange to Japan next year so we`ll see what happens... really not expecting any of these to come up a lot
tysm for this, I needed to hear all this because I saw all the rules and I was like woahhhh
Good video! I’m not going to rotary, but it’s cool to see other kinds of exchange student expiriences
Your perspective on life is just so beautiful to me, I really wish you uploaded more often!
This helped thank you (I’m becoming an exchange student in America!! Can’t wait!!!)
And don’t worry I’m not going to date 😂💕
@@matthewgraygublerswife9224 Not always but you can usually tell by how they act
What state was it and how was your time there?
Hi! I'm Brazilian and I did the NGSE Exchange program too. I went to Treviso, Italy, and it was really amazing! Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Oi,bom dia!
Eu adoraria saber mais sobre o programa,vc poderia me explicar mais sobre?
thank you! i just had my district interview today. if i go to europe next year i'll be 18 & i already drive here in the US so this was helpful to hear
Emma Minter Hey, hope it’s going well, or it went well.
Thank you so much for the details~welcome to Korea 🇰🇷
well, i was going to use rotary, until my school recommended YFU instead. The rules were easier to understand, the application process was easy, and just to sum it all up, everything was easier.
Was it expensive?
@@cyb3r921 With YFU it really depends on the country, generally a whole school year is between 14,000 and 15,000, and a semester could be around 9,000 to 11,000.
Brandon I really want to be an exchange student in japan, do you think it would be cheaper through rotary or YFU?
@@cyb3r921 Rotary is the cheaper option, and I personally find it easier to find information on rotary. So I would reccomend rotary.
Brandon do you get to choose what country you exchange to?
How often can hookups happen in France compared to US?
My friend went to France junior year and encounters of those sorts are much more likely.
Thank you thank you thank you
We tell our students no increase or decrease of life on exchange :) The problem I have with your opinions is that you may lead students to believe that they won't get sent home if they break the rules. We do send students home who break the rules, and have done it several times.
Same! This video is very inaccurate.
Ohhh your district is near of mine ! I'm french and I'm going to the Japan in august ^^ (I'm in district 1790)
Heyyy j'arrive un peu (beaucoup tard) mais ça s'est bien passé ? Rotary c'est un bon organisme ou pas ? :)
@@alexaneg5686 très bon organisme 😁 je recommande après avoir passé un an à l'étranger grâce à eux ~~ 😊
Très bien organisé, très safe pour les étudiants 👌
salut omg moi aussi je suis grave en retard mais tu pourrai me passer un de t’es réseaux ou venir me voir en dm insta : nssouqlf car j’ai beaucoup de question à te poser par rapport à ça s’il te plaît !
heyy did you pick japan?
@@starr2870 Yep, was my first wish
😊 thank you 🥰

What are the grade requirements?
hey, im leaving for south america in about three months with rotary, and your video was completely everything that i needed to hear to get reassured a bit sooo thanks! and also, did you go out on the week-ends with, i dunno, friends of your school, or did you have to wait for rotary week-ends? and were your host families tolerant?
Salomé Roux it’s been 3 months, are you there? 😂
I am going to France through RYE in August!
I'm interested in this scholarship so can you please tell me that how you go please tell me I'm waiting massage 😢
Can I just say I love you!! Where are you going on exchange?? I’m going to Italy
Sean Akka how did u apply for it?
Brasil!!!
Hello from Braziilllll
Hi I was just wondering... What are the grade requirements that you needed? I know it says above average but what do they mean by that?
they mean average. all a’s and b’s would be amazing. if you have some c’s your probably fine. its about knowing that u put in effort
Will I get some help from Rotary Club to read? I am very happy to read pliz help me sir
Anybody else here, who would be on exchange right now if the world was not literally ending
gosh same i want to go to japan this year but with covid um
@@starr2870 I feel your pain, but I‘m sure our time will come
great video! you kind of remind me of Tilly Ramsay
I have a question tho about the Driving part if I have my liscense in my original country (canada) and I go to the us can I drive because it’s the same road rule and I’m legally allowed to drive in both of the country i don’t know if what I just said was clear ahah sorry
No. The insurance you get will not cover you. You also will not come to the US as exchange is restricted to countries that do not speak your native language :)
Do I have to know English so good like on which level I have to know to talk to go on an exchange in the USA
English is simple, knowing a little goes a long way, people will be able to understand you easily.
Hey can we get work permit on student exchange
Typically not. Because you go on a student visa, most student visas in most countries won't allow you to work.
India is from the my country and the condition of my house is not very good, I want to read on any other country
Heyy! I have one question... Can you go to exchange with Rotary if you don't have their office in your country?
I am not sure. I do not think so because you have to have a local Rotary Club sponsor you. You could look into Rotary clubs in a country nearby if you live near another country.
Look for another organisation
but like i get the "4 D's" but its kinda heteronormic...like 90% of the time i would never choose to have sex with somone of the opposite sex so like-
I don't really get the no dating rule... Is it more than having sex?
Does it matter what school you go to if you want to do an exchange?
no it doesnt matter !
I’m gonna go ask some qs on insta lmao just heads up
I'm Sorry for the question, i know it's kinda private, but how much did you pay? I ask you that because i want to do an Exchange year sooo bad but most of the companies' prices are like ridicously high! (At least for my family) . If the question is too private don't answer and i'm Sorry. Also forget my possible mistakes , i'm italian
I made a whole video all about the cost but all in I paid Rotary $5500 and about $4000 in other costs like trips and spending money ruclips.net/video/S4satYmSGwk/видео.html
Lydia Rollo i'm gonna watch the video now and thank you so much
Fanxy Eskimo Kookie i'm already doing it but here it's impossible for young people have a real job. I do babysitt and help kids with english but more it's impossible
itsniki i dont know where you are places where u can tell thay and people can donate u or u can find a cheaper agency or ask for scholarships
Why not driving ??
I want to go to France but I’m not great at french. In class will I understand?
Most likely not in the beginning, but after a few months, most students start to understand.
@@LydiaRollo How much did your language improve from start to end?
Hey I'm french and I have a brazilian sister in my home. And like after less than 5 months she completly understand us. You dont have to worry about it 😀
@@emmaallera5225 Good to hear man, thanks. I'm spending my sophomore year of high school in the Pyrenees/Mediterranean region
@@BudderB0y2222That great ! You're lucky its beautiful there
