Q: Can I choose what city or state I
live in?
A: NWSE cannot guarantee your placement in a
specific city or state. We send out your
application information to our Academic Coordinator
network and match you with a family or exchange
partner who we feel would be the best match for
you. If you can suggest a potentially acceptable
host family in the region in which you wish to
study, then we may consider your request as a
"Sponsored
Placement", and you may enjoy
substantial reductions in our program fees (if
the host family and school meet all
qualifications).
