How it works

From "what if" to wheels up.

Five steps, one app. Scroll the itinerary.

  1. 01

    Two minutes

    Create your profile

    Sign in with Google, Apple or email, then tell us who you are and where you are hoping to go.

  2. 02

    Reviewed by a person

    Verify once

    Upload a student ID or admission letter. A coordinator checks it, and it stays private: never public, never shared.

  3. 03

    Real dates, real seats

    Pick a programme

    Browse programmes from partner agencies with dates, age limits and how many places are left.

  4. 04

    With reasons

    Apply and hear back

    Track every application in the app. Every decision comes with a note, including the no.

  5. 05

    Photo Booth

    Live it, share it

    Post from abroad, follow the friends you make and get updates from your programme team.

Inside the app

Everything the year needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Built with coordinators who have run exchange programmes for years, and the students who lived them.

Programmes

Places you can count on

Every programme shows its dates, age range and a live seat count, so you never apply for something that is already full.

Verification

Verified once, trusted everywhere

One approved document unlocks every application. No re-uploading for each agency.

Community

Photo Booth

Share the year as it happens, with a caption and a place.

Social

A feed of people you chose

Only accounts you follow. No algorithm deciding what you see.

Notifications

Updates that find you

Programme news and decisions land in your in-app inbox.

Security

Private by default

ID documents live in private storage and are only opened by staff with permission.

For agencies and coordinators

Run the programme. Skip the spreadsheet.

Review documents and applications in queues that put the longest wait first. Every decision is recorded with who made it, when and why.

  • Two queues, one audit trail Documents and applications record who decided, when and why.
  • Longest wait first Queues sort oldest-first, with live pending counts in the sidebar.
  • Bulk review on busy days Approve up to 100 documents at once. Rejections still need a written note.
  • Roles that fit your team A permission matrix decides who can view, edit or delete each area.
