Homestay Program
If you are in need of accommodations while attending Future Hope Academy, we’ve got you covered with our homestay program.
Homestay families provide Future Hope Academy students with room and board and act as a second family.
HOMESTAY FAMILY SELECTION PROCESS
Students fill out the homestay application form at least one month before arrival. We match families to students depending on their needs and preferences.
Homestay families are selected after multiple interviews and home visits. We make sure the living conditions meet the standards of Future Hope Academy and our students.
If the students are dissatisfied with their homestay within the first month of their stay and have a valid reason, we place them with another homestay family.
ACCOMMODATION
Each student has a fully furnished private bedroom.
Students are also given the option of shared rooms or private washrooms, depending on availability and budget.
LOCATION AND TRANSPORTATION
Most of our homestay families are located within a 30 to 45-minute bus drive to school.
Depending on availability, students may also require drop-off and pick-up from their homestay families.
MEALS
The homestay families provide breakfast, lunch and dinner. The students can prepare breakfast and lunch packs.
If the students have dietary restrictions or allergies, they must inform the school and the homestay families in advance.
ARRIVAL
Students are required to inform the school and their homestay families about arrival times to make sure homestay families and their rooms will be ready. Students are also required to provide their flight information as soon as they purchase their flight tickets.
HOUSE RULES
Each homestay family may have their own house rules. We encourage all our students to discuss these rules within the first week of arrival. It is also significantly important to talk to the homestay families regarding any concerns or questions. Remember, a positive attitude and communication is the key to a pleasant homestay experience, and our homestay families always help you.
