If you're interested in participating in our programs but can't make it to our scheduled Open House events, consider inviting EFI to your neighbourhood! We'll host a personalized night for you and your friends, providing a private setting to explore our programs and opportunities - we love to take our programs on the road!

"Exploring student exchanges"

Rochester Area Families In-Person Event

Give your child the opportunity to truly live a language, not just study it. Through a full-immersion exchange, students build language fluency, confidence, independence, and a deeper understanding of another culture while becoming part of a family abroad.


EFI’s reciprocal model adds another layer of connection and security. Two carefully matched students live with each other’s families, allowing parents to know and communicate with the family hosting their child throughout the exchange.


Join us to learn how EFI exchanges work, how we match and support families, and what an exchange could offer your child. An EFI Director will discuss credit-by-assembly testing, Minnesota’s Bilingual Seals program, and how language skills gained through an exchange may later translate into high school and college language credit.


Wednesday, September 23 at 6:30 PM
Rochester Public Library

101 2nd St SE
Rochester, MN 55904


Come with questions. Leave knowing if an exchange is right for your family.
