OUR PROGRAMS

Classic High School in Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland

We offer a high-quality Classic High School Exchange Program, where students can choose to be placed in Denmark, Norway, Sweden or Finland. They live with a voluntary host family (families receive a small monthly compensation) and are enrolled in a local public high school, attending classes and following the same academic curriculum as local students.

The program duration is 3, 5 or 10 months, with arrivals in August and January depending on the host country.

Students arriving in August will take part in a 3-day, 2-night Welcome Camp in Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm, or Helsinki. The camp includes arrival workshops, sightseeing, and a variety of fun activities.

Students arriving in January will join a 3-day, 2-night Winter Camp in Oslo, featuring skiing, sauna, arrival workshops, and sightseeing.

IGCSE Boarding in Denmark

We offer an 11-month program at selected Danish boarding schools (efterskoler), where students study for the Cambridge IGCSE exams.

Each school offers something unique, giving students the opportunity to choose a school that matches their interests. All classes are taught in English, and students live alongside mainly Danish, but also international, classmates. Various international trips and national excursions are included in the program.

During school breaks and selected weekends, students will stay with a Danish host family.

IB Boarding in Denmark

In this two-year program, students study for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma at a Danish public high school.

Students study alongside Danish and international classmates while living in school-run dormitories. All classes are taught in English, and students have the opportunity to experience Danish culture and school life.

During school breaks and selected weekends, students will stay with a Danish host family. During the long summer break, students will travel back to their home country.

Valentina from Mexico:

“There were definitely some moments where I doubted myself, wondering if I’d made the right choice or if I could actually handle being somewhere so new. I’ve found some great friends along the way, and that has made everything so much easier. All the activities we’ve done together have been really fun, and moving into my dorm and slowly making it feel like my own space”

URTE FROM LITHUANIA:

“It was hard to start living on my own, but I managed to do it.

The biggest cultural shock so far was how calm and warm people are. People in school are very friendly and helpful. There are a lot of extracurriculars and clubs to join to fill out my time being here. I love being in here, it brings me a lot of joy and happiness.

I don’t have a favourite moment, because here everyday brings something new and fun.”

SHORT-TERM Boarding in Denmark

We offer a short-term program at a Danish boarding school (efterskole), where international students live and study alongside Danish classmates. Classes are taught in Danish, giving students the opportunity to improve their language skills and experience Danish boarding school life. Students can also pursue their passions by choosing one of the school’s many different sports or vocational tracks.

The program lasts 3 or 5 months.

Exchange students in Norway

Selina from Italy, 17 years old:

“I go to school here, and afterwards I do things like sports, going out with my friends and to the city. I chose Norway expecting beautiful nature, but it’s even more beautiful than I thought. In the winter, it looks like a wonderland, and I’m so excited to go skiing and snowboarding!”

Fenja from Germany, 17 years old:

“I wanted to do an exchange in Norway, because I wanted to get to know a new country, culture, and language. I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and experience new things. My host family talks with me a lot, so I got to know them really easily, and we took a lot of trips in the first months so I could experience Norway. I had a really good start. For me, it really helped that everyone welcomed me and made that start easy for me by inviting me to things.”

Exchange students in Sweden

Momoko from Japan, 15 years old:

“It’s been a really new experience for me living in a small town in Sweden, because I’ve always lived in the city. It’s so interesting that the forest is only three minutes away. I’ve enjoyed time with my host sisters and going for walks in nature and the snow. I’m excited about the rest of my stay!”

Gesa from Germany, 16 years old:

“I’ve been in Sweden for three months and I still can’t get over the beauty of this country! I’ve had so many opportunities to experience new things. I’ve joined sports clubs and a choir. I’ve started saying this is my second home now. If you’re thinking about going to Sweden, do it! It’s worth it 100%!”
