Make friends from all around the world

EF International High School Camp will give you the confidence you need to make a successful start into your exchange year. Gathering students from over 13 different countries who will be doing an exchange year just like you, Camp is the chance to learn about other cultures, make friends, take part in sporting events and fun activities before embarking in the adventure of a lifetime.

Discovering New York City and experiencing American culture

Camp is an experience - you get to embark on a day trip to New York City, a local baseball game, and a trip to an amusement park. You take part in sports and activities at camp that allow you to let down your guard, build confidence, and help you to begin the practice of making new friends. Practicing these social experiences at camp sets you up to make friends when you arrive to you Host Family and new school.

Getting ready for everyday life in the USA

Camp is also a great opportunity to learn more about the American lifestyle, practice speaking English every day and to gain first-hand insights into what your American high school experience will be like. Attending practical classes and after school activities will help you to build the toolbox you will use during your year in the USA.

“Meeting all the excited, nervous, and like-minded students really helped me get into the right mood to continue the year. I met a lot of friends and teachers that all helped me when I needed support throughout the year, and just being able to reach out to people in the same boat really helped me overcome some challenges I had during my year.”

– Timothy from Sweden
