Homestay Program for Intensive ESL Students
Worcester State University’s Intensive English Language Institute can help you find housing with a family in the Worcester area through our Homestay referral program.
Living with a family will help you improve your English and learn more about American culture. Placements range from simple room and board to a home with complete family involvement.
The price for a Homestay is about $1,000 per month and is negotiated between you and your host family. This fee often includes some meals.
Homestay Application
Complete the Homestay Application and send it with a one-time placement fee of $200 to the IELI office. Homestay placements are limited, so please apply early. Any additional placements will incur new fees.
