FALL BREAK CONNECTION: THANKSGIVING EXCHANGE

(LAST UPDATE/REVIEW: OCTOBER 5, 2022)

The Thanksgiving Exchange program gives UC San Diego international students a one-of-a-kind opportunity to observe this American holiday with a host family in and around the San Diego area. This year, Thanksgiving Day is on Thursday, November 24th, 2022.

This exchange program is an opportunity for both international students and host family members to learn more about each other’s cultures and meet new friends over a shared meal. It is also an important way for international students to learn firsthand about the diverse ways in which this holiday is observed in the United States while spending time with a local family. Many students and host families are returning participants each year!
