A Host Home

Simply for You

HOMESTAYS

Our hosts are an integral part of a homestay for international students, as they’re responsible for opening up their home, welcoming a student, and providing the highest form of hospitality throughout the entire experience. Your host family will guide you through your U.S. journey and help you with any questions, concerns or issues that arise.

Your Safety is Our First Priority

We don’t take our international homestay program lightly, especially regarding the safety and security of our students. We only choose host families who have undergone national criminal background checks, interviews, at-home inspections, orientations, and training. On top of intensive procedures for households, we’re CSIET-compliant, meaning Bridges International Group holds its families to the strictest guidelines to ensure each student is safe and well taken care of during their entire academic homestay.
