Why Global Student Exchange
- GSE focuses on the secondary level of education, students 13-17 years old, whose long- term goal is to attend university of their choice in the U.S. This is a university pathway program.
- We place these students into private boarding and day high schools (host family accommodations) in grades 9 through 11, they graduate with a U.S. high school diploma and then go directly to the university of their choice.
- This is a new concept for India however one that is catching on rapidly. We believe India is the next China with regard to secondary student study abroad in the U.S.
- There is a huge demand from all our schools in the U.S. for Indian secondary students 13-17 years of age.
- The numbers of potential students in this age group 13-17 in India are large.
- Indian students have been coming directly to universities across the U.S for many years. We are offering another way – a university pathway program where students attend a private high school, graduate with a U.S. high school diploma and then go onto the university of their choice.
- We can accept applications and place students for grades 9, 10 and 11 – students ages 13, 14,15,16, 17 years of age – many private schools will not accept students in the 12th grade.
