Options for Arrival/Pickup
-
Your host family picks you up for a $100 pickup fee. Students and Hosts are responsible for notifying IH of the student's arrival.
-
You arrange your own transportation to the homestay as agreed by the host ahead of time. Intercultural Homestays and Services Inc does need to do their orientation at some time shortly after arrival. Students must have an appointment with their host to be greeted at their home. IH is not responsible for arrival delays, items left at the airport, leaving the airport with the wrong person, car accidents, or misunderstandings between hosts and students about arrival time. If the Host agrees to have a student arrive on their own without our orientation, students wishing to leave this homestay within the first month will not receive a refund of any payments made.(If selecting this option, you must sign a release form.)
