How to Get Involved

Dr

"Everyone wins in the exchange! It allows our students to interact with international students. We learn about other cultures from them, and they learn about American culture from us."

Ready to give your students the gift of a world class education with EF Foundation? We’re ready to show you how!

Step 1. Contact EF Foundation

Contact us online or call 1-800-44-SHARE to receive more information. Our Regional Placement Managers can provide detailed answers to any questions you may have. They’ll also put you in touch with your local coordinator.

Step 2. Meet with Your Local Coordinator

Your International Exchange Coordinator (IEC) will be your local program contact. He or she will wish to arrange a meeting with the school principal or guidance counselor—whoever will be responsible for overseeing the exchange program in your school. Your IEC will provide you with a school packet that includes comprehensive information on EF Foundation, as well as any forms you’ll need to get started.

Step 3. Submit Enrollment Forms

Send in your Pre-Enrollment Agreement form, which indicates the number of EF Foundation students you wish to accept for the upcoming school year. Once your IEC knows which students will be attending your school, you’ll receive individualized High School Enrollment Agreements for each student. Once you’ve signed and submitted these, you’ll be ready to welcome the world to your school!
