Congratulations 2017-18 FLEX Program Finalists!

Finalists in the competition will have the opportunity to live with an American family and study in an American high school during the 2017-2018 school year.

The FLEX program pays for all travel, housing and living expenses for program participants with all funding generously provided by the Government of the United States of America. FLEX testing is open to all high school students who meet the requirements of the program including students with disabilities. More than 220 disabled students have participated in FLEX over the program’s history, including 4 from Turkmenistan.

FLEX continues to be a very popular program in Turkmenistan.  1,141 students participated in the testing from across all five welaeyats, at seven different city testing centers.

FLEX also continues to be a very competitive program.  The 2017-18 FLEX cycle in Turkmenistan had an acceptance rate of 2.2% while Harvard University had an acceptance rate of 5.4% in 2016.  In future years we hope the number of FLEX Finalists will be increased to allow more talented Turkmen students to represent the best of their country in America.

Finalists in the competition will have the opportunity to live with an American family and study in an American high school during the 2017-2018 school year.
The FLEX program pays for all travel, housing and living expenses for program participants with all funding generously provided by the Government of the United States of America.  FLEX testing is open to all high school students who meet the requirements of the program including students with disabilities.  More than 220 disabled students have participated in FLEX over the program’s history, including 4 from Turkmenistan.
