In the main application, there are many things to be filled out. To better get acquainted with you, AFS also asks you to answer these questions*. Your responses are usually forwarded to your host family when the placement is made:

1. Describe your personality and what is important to you.

2. Describe a difficult decision you have made and how you made it.

3. Describe your relationship with family members and friends (for example: How are you different from your brothers/sisters and/or friends? What is your role in your family? In what types of situations do you seek advice or guidance from your parents?).

4. Describe your role outside your family (in school, in a job or in the community).

5. What do you hope to gain from the AFS program?

6. What can you contribute to the AFS program and to your host family/community?

*These questions are subject to change.
