Hi! You could begin with contacting the exchange organization of your choice, for example, I went with EF. The program is either 10 months or half a year. You can use my EF link for further information: efhsey.rfrl.co/mjv92
hii, I don’t know if I understood your question correctly, but yes need to finish your school semester in your home country before you move to do an exchange year.
