HOMESTAY
The Programs and Services Coordination has a vast directory of selected families who offer students accommodation and meals within a familiar context and according to student preferences (with or without children, pets, located in the center, etc.)
Family is the base of a culture. The daily interaction in a familiar environment will help students to integrate into Mexican culture. Families will help foreign students practice the language on a daily basis, as well as offering three meals a day (a special diet can be requested) and space to do their homework. Of course, some rules regarding alcohol, visits, drugs, phone calls and other aspects apply during students’ homestay. Ask for a brochure for further details.
Relationships between Mexican families and foreign students are always fructiferous because students automatically become a family member. They feel welcome and protected during their stay and they build strong links with the other family members. These links are likely to remain forever.
What are you waiting for? Experience a family stay, you will not regret it!
