CHOICE OF COUNTRY FORM-STEP YEAR 2018
Dear Rotary Exchange Student Applicant:
We are pleased that you have applied for the Student Exchange Program. It is an excellent program and we believe
it will provide a rewarding experience for you and your family.
We exchange with many countries for the short term program. The counties are listed below.
Most of our exchanges occur in the northern hemisphere as the “school summer breaks” are similar however if you
exchange with a southern hemisphere country the exchange can be broken up in two parts as their “school summer
breaks” are opposite of ours. Please get your full applications to your Youth Exchange Officer as soon as possible
as the choice of country is awarded as they are received by the STEP Coordinator. Although there is no guarantee
that we will be able to arrange an exchange with a country of your choice, we will not place you in any other
country without first receiving your permission.
It is extremely important that we know if you are willing to have an exchange match made with either a male or
female student. Please indicate by marking the appropriate box below.
