Thank you for choosing Diablo Valley Homestay. Since 2001, we have
successfully placed thousands of international
students with local host families in the beautiful San Francisco Bay
Area. Our specialty is providing homestay placements
for students attending Diablo Valley College, the International Education
Center at Diablo Valley College (IEC@DVC), Contra
Costa College, Los Medanos College, John F. Kennedy University, and Quarry Lane School.
We are the most experienced and
knowledgeable homestay provider in
this area, and we take great pride in offering students exceptional,
pre-screened housing
accommodations, including the best homestay rates in Northern California.
What is a homestay? A homestay is a safe and affordable housing arrangement
with a pre-screened and dedicated host family.
Finding housing anywhere in the San Francisco Bay Area is challenging
enough for people that already live here. For a newly
arriving international student, the task can be near impossible. Our
experience and expertise make securing a homestay placement
easy, and more importantly, relieves the student and their parents
of worrying about finding housing after the student arrives in the
United States. Living in a full-time English-speaking household is
enormously beneficial for an international student, and dramatically
increases their English proficiency within a very short period of
time. |

Diablo Valley Homestay has hundreds of
host families in our housing registry, and we work closely with all
of our host families and students throughout the entire placement
process and the duration of the placement.
We work hard to ensure that both the host family and the student have
a positive and memorable homestay experience. In addition to homestay
placements, we offer an airport pick-up service for our students,
as well as an after arrival assistance package. Furthermore, we also
offer other housing alternatives for students preferring more independent
living arrangements, as well as providing short-term housing placements
for interns and working professionals visiting the area.
