Kennedy Lugar YES Program, an exchange program sponsored by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, aims to bridge understanding between the Muslim world and the American society. The program was established after the 9/11 tragedy which caused a bad reputation towards Muslims in America. Using descriptive qualitative-based, in-depth interview and utilizing Co-Cultural Theory by Mark Orbe, the researcher discovered a pattern of communication outcomes carried out by the students during their programs as part of their adaptation process. The students’ background in Islamic education supported by intercultural experience they went through, have successfully produced a great life changing perspective in religious diversity that the students never gained inside pesantren. The students, whose mindsets were taught not to celebrate other religions’ rituals and celebrations during their pesantren education, were able to alter their point of views in order to show respect and religious tolerance as part of their adaptation process. They realized their positions as a minority needed a bargaining position to make them part of the society.
