People to people organization?

Question

They asked me to go on a trip over the summer. All around europe. I put a pin in and it told me to go to King's college.

Should I go? Will it help getting into college?

Answer 1

People to People have mailed ALOT of people information lately.... weird. But no I would not recommend going with them, their a sketchy orgranization. Might I suggest AFS, YFU or Rotary? Here are their websites:

http://www.usa.afs.org/usa_en/home

http://www.yfu-usa.org/

And Rotary doesn't have a specific website, you have to search it by district. For instance if you lived in Los Angeles you would search "Los Angeles California Rotary". Then email the exchange coordinator and if their email isn't listed email someone else and ask to be connected to the exchange coordinator.

Here is a forum that's really helpful: http://www.cultures-shocked.org/forum/?

And no. Only going for the summer does not help you get into college. If you were to go for the school year, then yes, it would definitely help you get into college, with alot of scholarship opportunites and such.
