The La Crosse - Epinal exchange has been a over 30 year tradition in our area. The sharing of culture has been and will always be very important. The typical exchange includes an american student hosting in year 1 and then travelling the following year to stay with their students family. However, due to various circumstances, we understand that it is not always possible.

While we would prefer students who are willing to both host and travel, in that order, we are also open to other options. We have many more French applicants than American each year and would love to be able to accomodate more of them. If you are currently unable to host or travel, please still apply. Include your intentions below. If it works out with a student in Epinal, you will be included in the exchange.

If your circumstances change in the future, we will do our best to help you continue to be a part of the exchange.
