In a world of instantaneous connection, people sometimes forget the importance of face-to-face, day-to-day interaction. At InterExchange, we believe that by allowing people to live and work side-by-side with people in another country, we can increase global understanding.
Everyone who participates in our program—whether a student, a young professional, an employer, or a family—comes away with a greater connection to the global community, and a better understanding of the world’s rich cultural diversity. We are committed to building cultural understanding—one person at a time.
InterExchange is proud to have an experienced team that is dedicated to international cultural exchange. Nearly every member of our New York City-based staff has extensive experience traveling, working, or living abroad, and each person has a thorough understanding of the U.S. Department of State rules and regulations that govern our J-1 Visa programs.
