The International Student Homestay Program offers the possibility of living with a host family while attending OCC and is reserved for international students only. In most cases the family will provide you with room and board in exchange for rent. Each student desiring to live with a host family must first complete a Homestay application and be interviewed by the Housing and Homestay Coordinator. Every effort will be made to match the desires and needs of the student with an appropriate host family. This is a great opportunity for international students to practice and improve their English skills, learn more about the American lifestyle, be part of a family and share their culture and language.
Please note that international student Homestay placements are not done prior to the student’s arrival at Orange Coast College.
