Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family offers numerous advantages on a linguistic, cultural and financial level. Students stay in double or single rooms and families provide 2 meals per day. Comfortably housed families generally live in the residential zones. The journey to school may take over half an hour. We recommend that students get a bike (many possibilities to rent or to buy), which is without doubt the most suitable means of transport for the climate and distances in Fort Lauderdale.

Residence "Green Island Inn" (from 18 years)
This residential complex enjoys a central location close to the school (about 20 minutes by bus) and offers accommodation in studios or apartments for individual use. They are all equipped with a private bathroom, a kitchen, a TV, a telephone, a safe. Bedlinen and towels are provided and there is a cleaning service twice per week and a laundry room (paying) is available for use. Students also have access to a shared kitchen, BBQ equipment, a pool table and a swimming pool which they share with each other.
