DHAKA
: The
U.S. Embassy is pleased to announce a call for applications for the
Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (YES) Program Spring Semester
2027. The YES program builds a network of young leaders who learn
first-hand about American culture and principles, while at the same time
sharing theirs. The YES Program provides an opportunity for high school students from
Bangladesh to live and study in the United States for one
semester. Applicants compete for the YES program through a rigorous,
merit-based selection process. Participants live with a U.S. family,
attend an American high school, gain leadership skills, and engage in
activities to learn about U.S. excellence in governance, business, and
innovation. Since 2004, 530 Bangladeshi students
have participated in the YES program.
