The American Institute for Foreign Study (Australia) Pty Ltd opened its Australian office in 1999 and began offering its Camp America and Au Pair in America programs to young Australians. In 2005, AIFS commenced offering inbound programs and currently facilitates cultural exchange programs for more than 2,000 young people.
It should be noted that the medical insurance does not cover pre-existing medical conditions unless they have been pre-approved by the Camp America Medical Coordinator to add pre-existing medical condition coverage. If we cannot provide medical insurance for an applicant due to a specific pre-existing condition, they will be required to obtain their own personal cover for this. This policy will need to be reviewed and approved to meet specific requirements of the program and visa.
