This popular housing option allows each participant to continue practicing Spanish outside of class while learning about the Mexican culture. In most cases, two students are housed with each family.
Some single rooms are available for an additional fee.
Most families live within walking distance of the university while a few are a 15-minute bus ride away. Students spend time with their families eating and relaxing while talking about the events of the day. CEA provides students with homestay families that have been carefully chosen to ensure the best possible living arrangements for each student. Past CEA participants have found the homestay families to be incredibly friendly and willing to make students a true part of their family. Although every attempt will be made to fulfill each student's request, housing preferences cannot be guaranteed.
