Kaplan International

If you wish to immerse yourself in Scottish culture and put into practice what you will have learned in class, then staying with a host family is the ideal solution. You will stay in a single or double room (double rooms only available for students travelling together) with half board provided. Carefully selected by our partner school, the families live around 35 minutes away from the course centre. On request, you can also choose to have a private bathroom.

Your home from home in the city centre! Just a 30-minute stroll away from the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle and Princess Street, you’ll be ideally situated. Enjoy the privacy of your cozy en-suite room in a 5-to-7-bedroom apartment, where you will also have the chance to socialize in the shared kitchen/lounge space with your new friends.

Other common areas include a large common room with a pool table, TV area and café-style study areas – perfect for some mingling with other international students!

Wedged between the natural beauty of both Holyrood Park and Musselburgh Beach, in a sleepy suburb of Edinburgh – this residence is perfect for students who want a peaceful stay in Scotland, just a 35-minute bus ride from school. Students will be placed in single rooms with an en-suite bathroom, storage space, desk, lamp, chair and a notice board. Throughout their stay, students will need to cater for themselves using the fully stocked kitchen shared with their fellow students. The residence will provide students with linen and will change it regularly – students should bring their own towels and wash them using the coin-operated laundry facilities. While students are encouraged to keep their own space clean, the property will also do a light cleaning of the rooms once per week. The residence offers several shared facilities for students to use after their classes, including a common room, pool table and study area. For students who want an extra level of relaxation and fitness, the residence also offers access to a gym and spa for a fee.
