Lithuania_2012



Welcome to ASSIST Lithuania

ASSIST Lithuania was established to help young Lithuanian students currently in the 10th grade who would like to spend one year as exchange students in the United States as 11th graders.

2011/12 ASSIST Scholars from Lithuania

Our work in the Baltics began in Lithuania in the 1992-1993 academic year. Our first Lithuanian scholars distinguished themselves in their American independent schools, and ultimately 98 Lithuanian students have studied in the States under our auspices.  It is through the generosity of the Kazickas Family Foundation that this competition is made possible.
