Homestay facilities provide the student
with the opportunity to stay with an American family. Staying with an American host will offer
you a unique opportunity to learn about and experience first hand American lifestyles. You will
also learn English much more rapidly while living with an American Host.
To ensure that ICLS students have this
opportunity, we refer them to
Just Like Home,
a local organization that specializes in these arrangements.

Homestay hosts are professional
individuals who have native-like fluency. English is the primary language used in the home.
All of the hosts are well educated, have a genuine interest in international cultural exchange.
Visits are made to host families to ensure that they meet high standards. All homes are
located in safe areas.
