Our center provides a few kinds of accommodations for our students based upon their preferences and needs. We understand that how to live in China is an important part of their study-abroad experiences. All of our accommodations are carefully selected to ensure students' safety and comfort of our students.
Chinese Host Family:
| In the home-stay, students live with a Chinese host like the family member. This is the best way for the students to practice the Chinese language in real life environment and to experience the Chinese culture and daily life. It is also a popular way to build connections and friendships with ordinary Chinese people and families. As a family member, you may eat, watch TV, shop and experience daily life with the host family. |

Each host family is interviewed by our staff. A security check is completed before a selection is made. After the stay, the Global Exchange Center collects feedback about the host family from the students. Ratings and feedback are important for each host family in order to improve the quality of their home stay service.
The minimum booking for home stay is two weeks.
