When do I have to apply?

We recommend that you apply nice and early to secure your spot. The earlier you register the better, to allow plenty of time for the right host family to be located for you. Our recommendation is to apply well in advance, preferably one year before you plan to leave, to be guaranteed a spot. Of course, you can also apply at a later date, but no later than the end of April. A late application may also be subject to an additional fee.
