Incoming exchange students

Do you want to spend your exchange year at the GM?

It is possible to do an exchange at the Gymnasium am Münsterplatz in Basel. This applies to foreign students as well as students from Ticino / Romandie. 

Ms. C. Todeschini and Ms. E. Spasojevic coordinate the incoming exchange students and take care of procedures and tasks in regards to the exchange students. They link the exchange students, host families and the school, also supporting the teachers, all together working towards a successful integration into every-day school life. The headmaster's office is involved in the important decisions.

Specialized German courses

During your exchange, you'll attend special German lessons (German as a Second Language DaZ) with specialized teachers. These lessons are outside the normal curriculum and therefore a fee applies. An assessment will evaluate your German level, upon which you will be placed in a small group to support your individual learning. 

Host families

Please note that you are responsible for finding a host family. You may use the services of an exchange organisation for this.
