@@ByMagdaYT Its certainly something I wish I would have done - I should have pushed more when I was younger and then really just fell into a comfortable rut when I was in college and didn`t even travel for Uni. I think that's why I do try and travel as much as I can now.

OH MY GOD this was super helpful! you are amazing, and so is your english! Because of Corona virus the whole process has been slowed down but this video helped to clear some things up. I also would like to ask how long it took you to become fluent in english.
I'm very happy that it helped ❤️ - I also plan to do few more videos in this topic (application process step by step, my experience with RYE, where and when to go and stuff like that) so stay tuned! I was studying English since kindergarden and I knew it pretty well when I went on exchange but being fluent fluent took me problably 3-4 months and still improving every day! If You're intrested in learning languages faster check out my other video about it (it's linked in decription box ⬇️⬇️⬇️) PS good luck with application and I hope covid won't change Your plans 💪💪!
Depends on the country but yes normally yes however some make you host the same year you're gone others the year after, one will ask you to host for only 3-4 months other for whole period of exchange (about 10 months)
Hello, it depends on the district (which is not always a country), but it's more or less the same each year so if you figure out how many people went last year it should be similar, also it's easier to get if you don't mind the country and if you're just ready for exchange (not very immature, parents dependent or you don't speak English at all etc)
Depends on the place but usually you host for a time you're gone so 9/10 month but sometimes Rotary allows you to do just one round so around 3/4 months
It's a great idea but I personally didn't have one 😔 so I feel weird to talk about it but maybe I'll do some research and I'll be able to talk about it 😌
hi! I'm not sure if you still reply to these comments, but I was wondering if you know what are the chances of getting excepted into the program. is it hard to get into?
Hello, I would say the biggest obstacles are as followed: 1. Age (between 15,5-17,5/18) 2. Finding the club (might be a problem if you're in smaller city) 3. Money 4. If you're willing to host someone because most of the clubs require you The rest is on your personality, knowledge of languages, cultures, willingness to learn new things, being open minded and not racist or intolerant - at least in my opinion 🙈
@@btsinpastas9159 depends on how much you rotary club will sponsor but on top of visa and planes to go plus some pocket money/travels you need to pay I think at least 2/3k dollars
I just got the information that someone has canceled their spot as rye exchange student and then they asked if I want to go insted of her. After thinking five minutes I said yes. But now I am so stressed because I am so late with the paper work compare to other students.
Don't worry 🥺 You'll get everything on time! The visa is most important at time and I was doing mine few months before going (June/July) and most of students get their info they they are accepted for the program long time before You know anything else (town, school, host families) so I'm sure You'll be totally fine and You won't regret it 🎉😊 the real problem with time starts after April 💪 good luck on Your exchange and i hope all my videos will help You 🥰 don't hesitate to comment here or contact me on Instagram 🎉😌 PS which country You're going to?
@@ByMagdaYT Thanks for your kind words. About the countries....I don't really know where I wanna go...to be honest I am kinda stressed about that too😅. Maybe somw country where they don't speak English so I can learn a new language.
@@Liana-ku1vb yes, definitely going to the country with new language is a good idea! Check out my video what I think is the best way to choose: ruclips.net/video/ceKivcSRoWw/видео.html
Hello, I am thinking about being an exchange student, and I am curious about how much language experience you had when before you went to the US? Did you already know a lot of English, or were you a beginner?
Hi pls am an interactor And i wanna take part in Rotary youth exchange..... I have made some enquires, But the question i wanna ask is that can u tell some questions the interviewer will ask me
Hello, sorry I have no clue what they will ask you but they shouldn't be difficult questions, try to Google it ot because I never had interview before my exchange (I explained it in this or other videos I made)
It all depends on coutry that sends you and that you go to, trips, if you gonna host or not and for how long, so it's hard to say but it's I would say not less than USD 10k if you host and travel over there
It all depends from Your visa mostly and the program, for example in US I had visa that didn't allow me to do another visa for 2 years from the issue of the visa for exchange - who knows why but that was a requirement 🤷 also 4 years is very long time, normally exchange is 1 year long (10 months to be specific)
No no (at least I didn't and I haven't heard about anyone with Rotary to do so), the main idea is to stay in the same city and go to the same school for the whole year 😊
Ohhh, what if age , is aboutv14,5 years old, because it's a bit difference, but not 15, so when you are younger than 15, can you become an exchange student?😢
I want to apply for this exchange program for becoming a exchange student in Japan. I live in India so can you please tell me what is the first step I need to take to contact or apply for exchange program??
Hey! Here are few videos were are talk more in detail about your questions: 10 steps of becoming an exchange student in high school - ruclips.net/video/NJ4U58IrXV8/видео.html How to fill the RYE application - ruclips.net/video/OZU__BhiIkM/видео.html Enjoy and let me know if you have more questions 😉 there is also whole playlist about RYE ☺️
can i pick the country on where i want to study?? also since the pandemic are they still doing programs and how do i actually apply?? i really want to go to japan for a year and I'm going to be 18 next year too thank you
If You're gonna be 18 You have less choices because a lot of counties says under 18 at the moment of arrival 😔 watch my other videos about how to apply and when to go 😌 they are on the RYE playlist 😊
Also it depends from the country but a lot of countries did it even this year and didn't finish earlier last year so it depends You have to talk with Rotary clubs in Your country/district
@@ByMagdaYT also i really would like to ask, this is more about mental health but I'm a person with social anxiety but i really want to challenge myself and go to a school in a completely different country and I'm ready for that but I'm worried that they might decline my application if i do talk about having that since i know they do these interviews i hear about being confident and like i mentioned I am ok going to a country experiencing school somewhere else but do you think they might decline the application if someone had anxiety? and also apologies for this long reply but also do they pick which school you go to? like you cant pick if you prefer girls or mixed? Thank you !!
@@ByMagdaYT Thanks a lot! The video was uploaded a long time ago so I didn't expect a reply.... Btw can you answer one more question..... Like... Are there any scholarships available for this program?! If not fully funded then at least partial?!
@@whyuwanttoknow5839 I mean it's still not cheap let's not say it this way but it's around half price or even less than most of exchanges. In that case if I were you I would look for exchange that has some funding
This one is already kinda low cost, other low cost are normally scholarship programs but I haven't done it - try to write in Google name of your country (or country you wanna go to) and something like scholarship program (funded) exchange

@@ByMagdaYT thank u so much! If u don't mind i have one last question, for rotary can u only do it for year or are u allowed to do it for less time like month or semester?
@@adan26829 there is either one year (actually 10 months most of the times) or 2-6 weeks during vacation and it's called short term Rotary exchange program (I made recently video about it as well so you can check it out ☺️☺️)
No, no it's not for free but Rotary has one of the lowest "prices", I talk about it a little bit more in another video: 8 steps of becoming Rotary Youth Exchange student - ruclips.net/video/NJ4U58IrXV8/видео.html Also it depends from the country to country but fixed costs should vary between 4-5 thousand dollars plus visa, trips, flight to and back ect... (In comparison other organizations have prices 10-12k up for a semester so 🤷)
No, definitely no! And honestly if You wanna go anywhere else than US it doesn't have to be really good neither (I would say basic knowledge), if You go to US it has to be good enough to be able to get visa (one girl from Chile who was with me on exchange had to postpone her arrival for about a month bc she didn't know any english and they just didn't want to give her american visa bc of it but after 2-3 weeks of preparation she got the good enough level to pass the conversation in embassy and went on exchange 😌😌) Ps I'm not native speaker either and look how many exchanges I've done 🙈
Hey guys! I hope now You know something more about Rotary Youth Exchange 😊 Let me know if You have any more questions about RYE!!
Ma pls can I get a link where I can chat u private am an Interactor

I’m just seeing these videos, I’m want to go on exchange to Japan but I’m just trying to trust the process with everything😭

Hello Magda, Greetings morning from Indonesia🇮🇩
Good morning from Italy 😌
is it hard to be picked by rotary and get in the exchange program? how many people from the country do they choose?
Hello, it depends on the district (which is not always a country), but it's more or less the same each year so if you figure out how many people went last year it should be similar, also it's easier to get if you don't mind the country and if you're just ready for exchange (not very immature, parents dependent or you don't speak English at all etc)
Do my parents have to host when I’m gone ????
Depends on the place but usually you host for a time you're gone so 9/10 month but sometimes Rotary allows you to do just one round so around 3/4 months
Speak about the interviews from rotary

Hello! 😌🎉
hi! I'm not sure if you still reply to these comments, but I was wondering if you know what are the chances of getting excepted into the program. is it hard to get into?

2. Finding the club (might be a problem if you're in smaller city)
3. Money
4. If you're willing to host someone because most of the clubs require you
