Arranging Opportunities for International Students in America
for Over 15 Years
Our objective is to enhance cultural awareness by providing
high-quality education and programs that aid students in their personal growth
and pursuit of educational and career goals. Alongside comprehensive academic
year support, we also offer affordable short and long-term camps and online
courses tailored to your specific needs.
We collaborate with compassionate and supportive host families and schools that
offer educational packages suitable for any budget and career path. Each student
is assigned a dedicated and well-trained coordinator who will assist them in
various aspects, including Homestay and School Monitoring, as well as organizing
other enriching activities.
We establish strong connections within the community of schools and host
families, fostering lifelong and fulfilling relationships with our students.
Host Families
Our host families are screened and evaluated prior to
acceptance into the program and include Criminal Background and Child Abuse
checks. Our host families are an important part of the student’s homestay
experience and are selected not only upon screening, but also based on a real
desire to share their home and life experiences with an international student.
We are centrally located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
and serve the Greater Philadelphia and North Penn areas, which include Southern
New Jersey, Delaware, North Penn, Philadelphia and surrounding communities.
Local Coordinators
Our local coordinators are also screened and evaluated
prior to acceptance. We build strong relationships with our area private schools
and supervise the students at all levels. We provide 24-hour emergency
assistance whenever it is needed.
