Foreign student exchange is a collective term for programs which provides high school or college students with the opportunity to study abroad. The students taking part in these programs are living with a host family, who are chosen by certain organizations. These host families are often volunteers and are usually not paid for hosting students. This is also a device of the organizations to prevent picking an untrustworthy host.
