What is the status of Summer and Fall 2021 Programs? – Help & Learning

Fall and Summer 2021 programs are in the process of being finalized.
AFS will offer many Full Year and Semester programs, but with reduced numbers. It is important that applicants secure spots early.
AFS-USA is working with AFS-International to establish guiding principles for program decisions on summer programs.
There are unique considerations for summer programs. Many programs are group-based programs without host family components, and there are fewer entry/visa requirements for short-term travel.
The goal is to have summer program offerings finalized by the end of 2020.
Program changes are likely to occur based on the development of the pandemic over the winter/spring months.
Due to the impact of the pandemic and the repatriation of AFS participants, AFS-USA has limited national scholarships available during this period of recovery.
