What is hosting?
Hosting an international high school student means welcoming a motivated student (ages 14–18) into your home while they attend a local private high school.
Students have their own bedroom, attend school during the day, and become part of your family’s daily life.
Study Six supports both students and host families every step of the way.
Why Families Choose to Host
Make a Meaningful Impact
Help a student succeed academically and personally while experiencing another culture.
