The host family need only set an extra place at the table. This program allows students from formerly Russian states, who may become leaders in their countries, to experience the life of democracy in the U.S., in hopes that they will be able to use this experience to help further democracy in their own countries. Study Abroad TWU provides a variety of programs that allow high school and college students from the United States to experience life in any of 20 countries worldwide. They can choose to stay with a host family for either a semester or an academic year. In addition, there are summer programs which range from 4-6 weeks.
All programs allow students to take intensive language classes as part of their studies.
Scholarships are available for these programs. If you are a teacher or other adult, TWU can help you provide an educational experience for a group of students who wish to tour another country. Group tours are carefully arranged by TWU staff. Please read it.
