When you become a summer foreign exchange student, you have a few options when it comes to accommodation.

Summer study abroad with homestay

Feel at home by choosing to stay in our carefully selected EF Homestay, where you can immerse yourself in the culture by living amongst locals in a private home. Given their knowledge of the specific destination, host families can provide you with secrets that tourists can only dream of discovering. Find the best pizza in the city, or lounge on the softest white beaches in the most secluded regions. Your host family will be more than happy to provide you with this information over a traditional dinner, or a fun filled family activity.

Summer study abroad while living in a residence

If you prefer to live amongst your classmates, consider living in a residence during your summer student exchange program. Our residences are comfortable, secure and conveniently located close to the city center. Moreover, you will be able to make life long international friends while you explore historical sites and bond over your new experience as a summer exchange students.

Summer study abroad on a vibrant campus

Stay on-site, just steps away from your classes. You'll experience a vibrant campus life while living alongside students from over 100 countries. Enjoy the cafetaria, student lounge, sports facilities and more.

It's all about location, location, location. For instance, when you decide to study abroad in Spain, you can expect to spend at least 600 euros a week for a full-time Spanish language course in Spain (660 dollars per week as of this article’s writing). Add to that the price of your round-trip flight to Spain (about 1000 dollars), and any travel in Europe that you expect to do before or after your summer study abroad.

You should also count on 100 dollars a week for transport costs, dinners with friends, museum tickets, and so on. Spain is not an expensive country as compared to Australia or Japan. On the other hand, when you book a summer study abroad with EF, tuition, accommodation, and meals are included in the offer:

• 20, 26, or 32 language lessons per week (40-minute lessons)
