Please see our current student homestay housing costs above for the US colleges and universities we serve. For a list of ESL Schools click here. If you do not see your school listed, please email us to see if we can offer placement near the school or internships.

Once you have received your I-20 from your US school, please submit your student homestay housing application online or via email to our office. Typically, students are placed in housing 3-4 weeks before they arrive in the US and in plenty of time to contact their US host to say hello. Keep in mind that the busiest times for homestay placement is in the summer and winter months. IHPS works on a first-come, first-served basis, so submit your application early.
