Most students choose to live in family home stays, student residences, or in furnished apartments. With
each of these options, we can assist you in finding housing.
Family home stays
The majority of our international students choose to live with a family, as it provides a great opportunity
to experience American culture and home life, and to practice English outside of the classroom. Host families
come in all shapes and sizes: couples with children, single parents, or retired couples. All host families
have been pre-screened, to ensure that the family is friendly and accommodating, and that the home is
located in a safe neighborhood. Most families live in the Boston suburbs, and all homes are located close
to public transportation. You can choose to have a single or double room; you can also decide whether to
eat breakfast and dinner with your host(s) or prepare your own meals.

Student residence halls/dormitories
If your preference is to live in a dormitory, we can also help you to find one. Student residences can be
more appealing for independent students who wish to live in a lively atmosphere. Each of the dormitories
that house our students is within walking distance of the academy; some are in the beautiful and picturesque
Back Bay area. Rooms are always shared with one to three other students.
