No way. If you don't have time in high school, do it in college. I never studied abroad either times but I had a roommate from Japan. She had a great experience in the US.

no we have 4 foreign exchange students in our high school who are seniors this year. I want to study in costa rica or spain as a foreign exchange student. That's pretty cool that you speek italian. Not many people do.

no. I was a foreign exchange student my sophomore year...and i was the youngest student there. I went to Spain. You can do a Spring semester in Italy but you really need to start doing the application process. I went with Intrax Study abroad but basically you really need to start applying....there are so many other study abroad programs though...and well Intrax just raised it's prices. Also you can do it your senior year for a year or the fall semester so that you don't have to miss prom or graduation... being a foreign exchange student is amazing and you for sure should start thinking about it and Intrax also offers scholarships so that might be something to look at...and remember for the scholarships there isn't much competition only like 5-10 people...so think about it
