The Dashew Center for International Students and Scholars serves more than 12,000 international students and scholars at UCLA, providing visa services, immigration advising, and resources for F-1 and J-1 students, exchange students, and visiting scholars.

Homestay Near UCLA — What's Included

USH offers homestay accommodation for international students attending UCLA. Everything is included in one flat monthly rate — your furnished room, Wi-Fi, utilities, and an English-speaking American host family. No lease to sign. No credit history needed. No furniture to buy. Just arrive and settle in.

Your host family is your first connection to American life. You practice English every day at home — not just in the classroom. You learn how Americans cook, celebrate, and live. Many international students say their host family became some of their closest friends in the US.

Short stays of 4 weeks and longer stays are both available, so your housing near UCLA matches your program length exactly. Airport pickup is available upon request — contact our office for details.
