"One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things."
-Henry Miller

Rules and Regulations can change at any time. Check with the appropriate consulate early on.

First and foremost - ask your exchange partner about mores that have to do with diet, alcohol, attire, courtship, and religious observances.

Teachers outside the U.S. that wish to teach in the U.S. must have the U.S. institution provide them with an i20 Form. Simply take this to the U.S. consulate to secure a (J) Visa. For additional information please visit http://exchanges.state.gov/education/jexchanges/

Immediate family members need to apply for J-2 visas at the United States Embassy in their home country. A visiting teacher needs to request an eligibility certificate DS-2019 for his or her spouse and child. The following documentation must be submitted to the Migrant Education /International Office in CDE to procure an eligibility certificate:

Copy of a valid passport for the spouse and child, Marriage certificate; Insurance policy with the following minimum coverage: $50,000 per accident or illness for medical, Repatriation of remains in the amount of $7,500, Medical evacuation in the amount of $10,000, A deductible not to exceed $500 per accident or illness. The insurance corporation providing the policy must have a rating of "A-" or above, pursuant to 22 CFR Section 62.14. The Migrant Education/International Office in CDE needs at least eight weeks to process the requests.

For positions other than teaching please contact the U.S. embassy for details.

U.S. faculty interested in exchanging in other countries need to contact that country's Consulate. After speaking with numerous Consulates about this venture we received extremely positive feedback. They were very enthusiastic about the intellectual exchange that will benefit institutions and students.

For positions other than teaching please contact the appropriate embassy for details.

We encourage U.S. citizens to check with the U.S. Government’s Travel Advisory by phoning toll free at 1.888.407.4747 to find out if there are any restrictions/concerns when traveling abroad
