Your Safety is Our First Priority
We don’t take our international homestay program lightly, especially when it comes to the safety and security of our students. We only choose host families who have undergone a series of national criminal background checks, interviews, at-home inspections, orientations, and trainings. On top of intensive procedures for households, we’re CSIET-approved, meaning StudentRoomStay is audited each year to assure each student is safe and well taken care of during their entire academic homestay.
