About the ACS Alma Mater Exchange: Sharing the experience of learning is a vital contribution that our Club can make to our societies and future generations. In order to pursue this goal, the American Club of Sweden has organized the Alma Mater Exchange which draws upon the experience of our membership at American colleges and universities to assist Swedes who are interested in pursuing an education in the United States.
Stay tuned for further information about the AME representative folder that will shortly be available at the Swedish Fulbright Commission in Stockholm! Here you will see names and contact details of persons who can help you to establish a connection to a college or university you are interested in. If you are or would like to be a representative of your US alma mater and connect to Swedish students through the Alma Mater Exchange please contact us at ame@americanclub.se! |
