Call 1.800.833.6243 today!"My experience with YFU is one that both helped me to grow as a person and also gave me numerous amazing and life long memories. I gained a lot of self-confidence from traveling abroad and also learned that it is actually really good to sometimes take a chance and step out of the box. Not to mention that I made a myriad of friends while I was abroad too and gained a whole other family that I love as much as my blood related family."The global YFU network, consisting of partners in more than 60 different countries, is united by the belief that full cultural immersion is the most effective means to gain the skills needed to thrive in an increasingly multicultural, interconnected and competitive global society.Summer Study AbroadStudying abroad is not just a journey of distance and geography, but of culture and self-transformation. Discover yourself through new and challenging experiences. Find the U youve been looking for.YFU summer programs offer you the opportunity to learn the culture like no tourist could. Most YFU summer programs are traditional homestay programs, where youll live with a host family and participate in family activities throughout the summer. Imagine spending the summer exploring the wonders of China with a local family, shopping for food in a marketplace in Greece, or finding your way to the beach in a sunny Spanish town. Youll learn how another culture lives, works and learns from the inside.Summer programs range from three to eight weeks; most leave in mid-June. YFU awards more than 250 scholarships each year, many for summer programs.
