Discover the 2027 American High School Exchange Program by AISE
The AISE International Exchange Center, managed by Zenken Corporation, has officially launched the recruitment for its 2027 American High School Exchange Program. This initiative aims to provide middle and high school students, along with their families, a chance to broaden their global education. With informative pamphlets outlining the program's details, applications have been robustly accepted since June.
AISE specializes in sending Japanese international students to public and private middle and high schools in the United States, Canada, and the UK. Offering innovative services that go beyond the traditional exchange framework, AISE provides a comprehensive range of support systems. These include the unique "Regional Request System," generous scholarships and grants amounting to several hundred thousand yen, and a 24/7 online medical consultation service available in Japanese for students experiencing any health concerns while abroad.
Five Key Features of the 2027 AISE American High School Exchange Program
1.
Regional Request System: Unlike conventional exchange programs where students typically have no say in their placement, AISE allows participants to choose their desired state or metropolitan area for a nominal fee. This ensures that each student's preferences are taken into account, enhancing their overall experience.
2.
24/7 Online Medical Consultation Service: AISE provides its students with a free online medical consultation service dubbed "Study Abroad Doctor Pass." This guarantees students can consult with a doctor in Japanese at any time of the day or night—a safety net for anything from minor ailments to mental health concerns, ensuring peace of mind during their exchange.
3.
Zero Risk with Free Trial Examination: To alleviate concerns about academic readiness, AISE offers a free trial examination that mimics the official testing format, including an English proficiency test. Students can evaluate their performance before committing financially to the exchange, making the initial leap less daunting.
4.
Abundant Scholarships and Incentives: AISE promotes accessibility for all students with a rich scholarship program, including:
- A scholarship of ¥250,000 for exemplary students.
- A ¥30,000 incentive for demonstrating high English proficiency (not applicable to those who choose to skip preparatory seminars).
- A bonus of ¥50,000 for students who submit their application documents by January 13, 2027.
5.
Comprehensive Assistance for Designated Schools: Students enrolled in designated schools, which are proactive in international exchange and English education, can receive a grant of ¥50,000. For the latest list of designated schools, inquiries are welcome.
Upcoming Events
AISE will also host an "Online Information Session" to explain the program's details clearly, including costs and application processes. Furthermore, students will have the chance to participate in an essential "English Proficiency Mock Exam." For more information about the sessions, please visit
