part of AFS Intercultural Programs

We are the face of AFS in Delaware, Eastern Shore Maryland, and the eastern part of Pennsylvania, enriching lives through high school student exchanges. You may know us as the American Field Service--our high school student exchange programs date back to 1947. For more information, email info@afsdelmarpa.org

Our experience with high school exchanges goes way back to the days when nobody's suitcase even had wheels!
Over sixty years of AFS exchanges!

In addition to our ongoing core programs, AFS works with some special programs. 
The Future Leaders Exchange Program (FLEX) originated in the Freedom Support Act of 1992 and provides full scholarships for students from countries of the former Soviet Union. Partnerships for Learning Youth Exchange and Study Program (YES) focuses on students from primarily-Muslim countries. And the Congress-Bundestag (CB) exchange with Germany provides scholarships for German students to come to the US and US students to study in Germany. Here's where to learn more about special programs.
