Online Host Family Application
Thank you for your interest in hosting a foreign international student.
Hosting an international student is a wonderful opportunity to experience another culture, impact the life of a student, and make a difference in today’s world. The first step of hosting begins with the Host Family Application. In addition, the screening and student placement process includes the following steps:
Host Family Application
Criminal Background Check
Home Visit
School Acceptance
Student Selection of Host Family
Host Family Responsibilities and Agreement Form Review
Host Family Orientation
Student Arrival
In order to meet quality standards for AnB Education Global Education (“AnB Education”) hosting programs, comply with U.S. Department of State regulations for secondary student exchange programs, and - most of all - to assure the natural parents that their children are placed in appropriate host families, all families must be thoroughly screened and vetted. We are confident you would want the same assurance if a family in another country were hosting you or your child.
