Study Abroad with WEP Student Exchange 

A WEP student exchange is the opportunity for students to exchange their school, culture, family and possibly language for a selected time period in another country. 

It could be more rewarding than simply being a tourist, as you’ll live like locals and acquire knowledge not available to the general traveller. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to travel and study at an overseas school with the support of a volunteer host family. 

Get more information about becoming an exchange student, programs available and find out how to apply here.
