Loving families are needed to host an exchange student for the 2025-2026 school year (August-May). These students are bright, motivated, and excited to learn about American culture while attending a local high school!
This isn’t just about hosting a student—it’s about creating a meaningful connection that will last a lifetime! Our exchange students are mature, academically driven, and eager to become a part of your family’s everyday life. They’re here to immerse themselves in both school and family life, and they’ll bring their own spending money for activities and personal expenses. They also have full insurance coverage.
About CASE
Cultural Academic Student Exchange (CASE) is a non-profit, educational, and cultural organization founded in 1988 on the belief that international student exchange promotes understanding, respect, and goodwill among people of all nations.
Who can be a host family?
Honestly, there’s no "typical" host family. Whether you have young children or teenagers or are an empty nester, you’re encouraged to apply. Single parents, couples, or individuals— everyone is welcome! We understand everyone has busy lives, and these students come from families with similar schedules. As long as you’re open to making them feel at home, we’d love to hear from you!
What’s expected of a host family?
- Provide a welcoming home and a safe environment.
- Give them a bed and a quiet space to study.
- Offer 3 meals a day (and lots of love!).
- Treat them like a member of your family—setting guidelines and expectations to help them thrive.
It’s an amazing opportunity to enrich your family and make lifelong memories. If you’re interested or want more info, email [email protected].
And if you know someone who might be a great fit, we’re offering a $300 referral payment if they end up hosting!
