Opportunity for Turkish High School Students in the U.S.

The registration process has begun for the 'Turks Without Borders' program, which aims to bring together Turkish high school students living in Turkey, the United States, and Canada. The program, based on 15‑minute meetings held once a week, seeks to improve students' language skills and strengthen their cultural ties.

The Turks Without Borders (TWB) program, which aims to build a bridge between students studying in Turkey and Turkish youth living in the United States and Canada—starting with Washington—has opened enrollment for the new term.

Under the program, students will meet once a week for about 15 minutes to converse with one another. The goal is for Turkish youth living in different countries to contribute to each other's development through brief but regular meetings.

Student Bridge Between Turkey and North America

One of the program's core objectives is to help Turkish children raised abroad maintain their cultural ties and traditions with Turkey. For students living in Turkey, the program offers an international communication setting where they can practice everyday conversation in a foreign language.

Thus, students will not only practice language skills; they will also have the chance to share diverse life experiences, forge new friendships, and develop intercultural communication skills.

The program is shaped around mutual learning, cultural sharing, friendship, and an understanding of solidarity.

It also provided experience in university admissions.

One of the most striking aspects of Turks Without Borders is that it aims to give high school students experience in volunteering, leadership, and social responsibility.

Especially in the U.S., university applications not only consider students' academic success but also extracurricular activities, volunteer work, leadership experience, and societal contributions as important parts of the application file.

Through the program, it is aimed for students to gain experience in international cooperation, project management, leadership development, teamwork, and cross-cultural communication.

Certificate for long-term service areas of six months.

There is also a certificate option for students who participate in the program for a long time. TWB awards certificates to participants who have served as active volunteers in the program for more than six months, detailing the work they have carried out and the experience they have gained in international program management.

Thus, the aim is to record the responsibilities taken on and the experience gained by students during the program.
