About Ayusa Student Exchange. For more than 40 years, Ayusa has been connecting families around the world through student exchange. Ayusa International is a non-profit high school exchange organization dedicated to developing the next generation of global leaders and world citizens. By connecting extraordinary international students with host families in the U.S., we cultivate leadership skills, develop intercultural awareness and enhance global knowledge not only through education but through experience. For host families. Open Your Home to an International Exchange Student and Expand Your Family Miles, language, and cultural differences sometimes make us feel worlds apart from each other. But when you welcome an international high school exchange student into your home, you quickly discover they become family. Through experiences, conversations, normal day-to-day life, and special memories together - you will learn how close together “worlds apart” can really be.

For students: Spending a year in the U.S. changes the lives of Ayusa’s international exchange students and their host families and communities. Our students can experience life as American teenagers, perfect their English-speaking skills, and grow into young adults ready to leave their mark on the world. They also give back with their enthusiasm, dedication, and involvement. Their energy and perspective are contagious, and their presence creates a sense of global unity.
