Housing
The program offers two options - a homestay with a Dominican family or an independent studio. All housing options are located in neighborhoods with convenient access to the study center and campus. You will select your housing preference during the predeparture process.
Homestay
You will stay in a single-family house, apartment, or condominium within walking distance of the university. Typical of the Dominican people, your hosts will be friendly and welcoming. Most have been hosting students for many years and enjoy sharing meals, playing dominoes, talking sports, and listening to merengue music with their guests.
