Dreaming of Learning English or Spanish? The Secretary of Education Opens Dozens of Free Exchange Vacancies in Canada, USA, and Chile with All Expenses Paid.

The chance you’ve been waiting for has arrived! The Secretary of Education (Sedu) is offering hundreds of spots for students to participate in a completely free exchange program with all expenses covered, in three countries: Canada, United States, and Chile. The selection process offers scholarships for intensive English and Spanish courses.

The Student Exchange Program for Canada, United States, and Chile aims to enhance students’ communication skills in English or Spanish and develop their ability to express themselves proficiently in various communication situations, promoting socio-educational development in a foreign country.

Student Exchange Program: Canada, United States, and Chile

Free and Intensive English Course as a Foreign Language:

  • Deepening knowledge of the English language at an institution specialized in language teaching, lasting approximately three months.
  • Immersion in foreign culture through everyday experiences that the exchange student will go through.
  • Accommodation in a host family registered in the exchange program of the contracted agency, including two daily meals.
  • Health insurance, consular visas, cost assistance, passport issuance, airfare, and transportation vouchers for commuting during the course period.

The stages of the selection process are:

  1. First Phase: eliminatory and classificatory, requires the electronic submission of supporting documents.
  2. Second Phase: classificatory, based on the analysis of academic performance and attendance.
  3. Third Phase: classificatory and eliminatory, consists of an oral interview.
