Orlando homestay students attend the University of Central Florida (UCF) or Seminole College. Our host families in this area love to host international students in their homes, and many of these host for IHPS year after year.

Our Orlando homestay students love to visit the area attractions. Check out one group’s experience here. They had the time of their lives! The most popular attractions to visit are Walt Disney World and Universal Studios Orlando.

Orlando homestay students arrive at Orlando International Airport and airport pick up can be arranged for an additional fee.

The transportation system in Orlando is not that great, so IHPS Homestays often coordinates housing with our host families for Orlando homestay students. Typically, students will be dropped off in the morning for classes, and then picked up in the afternoon after their day is finished.

Summers in Orlando are often hot and humid and many days there will be rain, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying the beauty around this large city. UCF International students will find a very large campus to navigate and the school has a ton of activities for students to be a part of.

Seminole State College in Lake Mary/Sanford has over 1000 international students according to their website. Plan to meet a lot of other students when you arrive on campus!

If you are a host who lives near these schools, please consider opening your home to a student. For more information, please check out our Host Information page and the Host application.
