Housing

There are several housing options ACES students can choose from. Local off-campus options include homestays, and private or shared apartments. Read on to find out more about each option.

Homestay

Homestay provides an opportunity to stay with a local family during your time in the United States. It is an affordable accommodation option ideal for anyone looking for cultural immersion and more support. You may have a private or shared room. Homestay families provide meals, and may help with transportation. One of the companies that can assist you in finding a homestay in the area is My International Family.

Apartment

Renting an apartment is a great option for anyone looking for more flexibility and independence. When living in an apartment, students are responsible for preparing their own meals and paying utility bills. Students may rent an apartment alone, or share a place with one or more roommates. There are many available options of short-term and long-term rentals and students can choose between furnished or unfurnished apartments. Simply International is one of the many companies that can help you find a suitable apartment in the area.
