Homestay with Berlin host family
FUBiS offers a limited number of homestay opportunities with Berlin host families. Homestay is particularly attractive for German language students, since they will be able to practice their German in conversations with their host family and fully immerse in German culture on a day-to-day basis.
The costs include daily breakfast and family dinner.
Homestay provides students with a private bedroom including linen, bed, desk, a place for clothing and personal items.
Please note that especially during the summer months many families with small children will be on vacation and students will most likely be placed in a family with older kids who may not live at home anymore or who might not spend a lot of time at home. Please make sure to clearly indicate your expectations when completing the homestay questionnaire which will be sent to you once you have registered for our program. Placement in a family cannot be guaranteed and will be based on a number of aspects, i.e. smoking habits, allergies or dietary restrictions.
Students participating in both Summer terms can stay with their host family the week in between the two terms for an extra daily charge.
