Our promise

We get it — there are plenty of summer-camp recruitment companies out there. So why should you put your trust in us?

Exchange Path was created by people who have spent multiple summers at premium camps in the USA and have previously worked within the summer-camp recruitment industry. We built the programme we always wished existed — clear fees, fast answers, and people on the other end of the email who've actually lived a camp summer.

Camp Homeward Bound is unlike anywhere else — magical sunsets, the lake, and some of the kindest people I’ve ever met. Around it I had the best travel summer of my life: hiking in West Virginia, the New Orleans ghost tour, watching the Miami sunset. Exchange Path were beside me at every step, answering every question — they even had my camp t-shirt sent out to me before I arrived.

I’ve been going through Exchange Path since 2021 and they make every part of it feel easy. Their support takes the weight off the parts that look overwhelming on paper. This was my third summer with them, and honestly one of the best experiences of my life.

Having Exchange Path beside me through the whole process was a huge help. They didn’t just sort the paperwork — they answered the personal worries about travelling abroad too, which is what really put me at ease.

The Exchange Path team walked me through every step. It looked overwhelming at first, but with their support I went into it with full confidence — and they helped me land a camp offer I’d only dreamed of. Genuinely grateful.

Applying through Exchange Path was an absolute breeze. What stood out most was how clearly they communicated and how quickly the team got back to me with every question I had. I couldn’t be happier with how everything went.
