ELS PROGRAM ACCOMMODATIONS

Living on campus means you’re right in the center of student life, so you’ll always have the opportunity to socialize and meet new people. On-campus housing also means you’ll save both time and money on traveling to and from your classes. This is a great option if you want to immerse yourself in the college lifestyle, connect with fellow students, practice your English, and learn about all the different customs and cultures that make up the United States.

Moving to a new country where every face is unfamiliar can be a daunting experience. A homestay is a great way to adapt to a new culture, because you’ll always have the support of your host family. Every ELS center offers homestay accommodations with an English-speaking host family that is carefully selected so you feel safe and comfortable. Since you will have direct exposure to the customs and culture of your study location, you may be able to learn English at a faster pace while developing a special connection with your host family that can last a lifetime.

If you prefer a more independent lifestyle, you may choose to live in an apartment near your ELS center. Apartment costs and conditions can vary depending on location, and some ELS locations have special relationships with local apartment providers who welcome ELS students, families, married couples, or executive clients. Wherever you choose, you’ll always be in close proximity to campus so you’ll be able to take advantage of everything that college life offers.
