Abstract
This article starts with a critical reflection on student exchange programmes and discusses different models of students’ psychological and sociocultural adjustment in the host culture. It outlines the different needs they may have to adapt to cultural and behavioural norms and points out the limitations of traditional exchange programmes.
In a further step, the article provides insights from a long-term study on a special format of student exchange, the ACT/MGB programme, which brings together students from three (or more) different continents. This format comes close to meeting the European Commission’s objectives concerning cultural, (inter)personal and language learning during exchange programmes.
