With excellent grades and a rich portfolio, they can continue their studies at desired institutions under favorable conditions, including free tuition.
Students are placed in public or private schools depending on the chosen program and preferences
International students are placed with carefully selected and vetted American families, known as Host Families.
Hosting international students is a voluntary activity for these families, meaning they receive no monetary or other compensation. For host families, the exchange program offers an international experience and a form of passive travel.
An American family welcomes an international student into their home as a member of their family.
Most international students live on the school campus. These dormitories host both international and American students from other cities and states.
Dormitories for minors have school staff and teachers present 24/7.
They usually include a small kitchen for students to prepare additional food or drinks.
International students can live with host families.
This is a common option in the USA, which helps foreign students adapt more quickly to the new culture, lifestyle, and English language.
It is also cheaper than living in a dormitory.
This option involves 8-12 international students living together in a house with an American host family.
It combines the benefits of living with a host family and a school dormitory, allowing students to live and study with friends from different countries.
This is also the most economical option.
Accommodation includes both living and meals. If a student lives on campus, they eat in the school cafeteria. If they live with a host or international family, they eat with the family and can have breakfast and lunch in the school cafeteria.
It is important to recognize that American families are very diverse in their composition, ethnic backgrounds, religious beliefs, and income levels. The program cannot accommodate placement requests based on any form of discrimination.
The F-1 visa is a student visa for international students wishing to study at accredited institutions in the USA, such as schools, colleges, and universities, without intending to immigrate or reside permanently.
This visa is issued to students enrolled in accredited public or private institutions. F-1 visas are more frequently granted to high school students due to the support of educational programs by the USA.
The F-1 visa allows study only at accredited institutions. For high school students, this includes both public and private schools. Notably, the F-1 visa permits up to one year of study in public schools, while private schools do not have such a limitation.
The F-1 visa can be extended if the student maintains F-1 status and continues their education. A new I-20 form is required if transferring to a different institution.
F-1 students can work on-campus up to 20 hours per week during the school year and full-time during breaks. Off-campus work is allowed only in exceptional cases with permission from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

Additionally, those with serious criminal records or immigration law violations may be denied a visa.
