All families and flats are carefully selected and regularly inspected personally by our staff. Host families have been interviewed and chosen on the basis of safety, cleanliness, and ability to welcome international participants. In addition, accommodation options are chosen for their location and accessibility to public transport, most being just a few minutes from the nearest bus stop. They are generally located 10 to 25 minutes from the Academy.
For privacy and comfort, all rooms provided are single rooms.
*Double rooms are available for two participants jointly applying for the program and studying for the same period and duration.
Placements are made on a first come basis. Early application and enrollment is highly recommended. Accommodation reservations are made as soon as the applications are received. Accommodation placement is confirmed when enrollment is completed and program fees are fully paid.
Host Family and Shared Flat accommodation are available in two options: Standard and Standard Plus.
Standard accommodation offers quality at budget prices.
Standard Plus accommodation offers superior facilities; for example, room size, furniture, distance from the school and location in the city.
Details of the accommodation are provided before departure, when enrollment is completed:
- Accommodation address
- General description of the host or flat
