Housing - American Family Homestay

American Family Homestay

IEP runs its own Homestay Family Program. Families are carefully selected through a rigorous screening process, they must attend a comprehensive orientation session and are constantly being evaluated by the students.

All participating families must provide room, three meals per day, and transportation to and from school during weekday classes and on weekends for university sponsored activities. Families may live a 10-20 minute drive from the UC Riverside campus.

In the Homestay Family Program, students have the opportunity to learn about and experience first-hand the American culture, learn English outside the classroom and develop long lasting friendships.

The Homestay Family Program is available year-round

Room (double-occupancy) Three meals per day Transportation to and from UCR for classes and UCR-sponsored activities
