Cultural Academic Student Exchange

Our awesome students have officially begun arriving to their new home away from home! Magnus, Celine, Beatriz, Levi, Alina, Constantin, Sofia, Selene, and many more have received a warm welcome from their American host families. We can't wait to watch their adventures unfold!

CASE's incredible Rocky Mountain Region coordinator Stephanie closed out the year by hosting a farewell BBQ for all of her students and their families, and by the looks of it, everyone had an absolute blast! Thank you, Stephanie, for going above and beyond for your students!

Before heading back to Germany, Kim shared one last magical moment with her host family: a hot air balloon ride over beautiful Snohomish. She got one more good look at her sweet town in America before she headed home to her home country. Talk about a memorable send-off!

Lucie and her host family are creating memories to last a lifetime while visiting Valley of Fire State Park and Zion/Bryce Canyon National Park.
There's nothing quite like exploring America's most stunning landscapes with the people who've become your home away from home!

One of our incredible CASE hosts had the BEST family vacation to Costa Rica this Spring! They shared this amazing experience with our student, Chiara, making her exchange year even more special.

"So many memorable times from waterfalls, volcanoes, ziplining, night forest hikes, to just lazing around on the beautiful beaches. During these 9 days, we all grew closer, and it was inspiring to see the 'sibling bond' that strengthened between our son Lincoln and Chiara. We feel very fortunate that we were able to travel with our student, as experiences mean so much in building lasting memories!"
- Jason, Host Dad.

Birthday memories in the city that never sleeps! Lucie from Belgium celebrated her birthday with an unforgettable trip to NYC alongside her host family, experiencing one of America’s most iconic cities.

This Mother’s Day, we celebrated the host moms and families who make our students feel truly at home. Lara from Brazil had a wonderful time with her host mom and host sisters. Emil got to spend time with his host mom doing community service at the McClinchy Classic Century Bike Ride on Camano Island! Kim, from Germany, celebrated not only her host mom's but also her American grandma's special day. These connections become so much more than an exchange experience; they become family. 🩷

Happy Mother’s Day to all of our incredible host moms! Today, we celebrate YOU and all the ways you make a difference. ❤️
