Why should you choose homestay?
You will settle faster, be safer and learn about life in Australia and the expectations of students much faster. Your AHN host will also help you with a personalised one-on-one orientation including advice about transport, shopping and banking options as well as mentoring, culturalisation and developing a local network.
Our experience is that better-settled international students get better academic results and mix better with domestic students.
Beginning your adventure with AHN homestay allows students to jump right into their studies without the worries of finding housing, furniture and signing leases all from overseas. AHN hosts will help you to settle in to life in Australia and help you acclimatise to the different cultures, climate and lifestyle you will experience while you study here.
Utilities (gas, electricity, etc.) and accommodation costs are included in your weekly fees; food may be included but will depend on which homestay product you choose. You don’t need to budget for multiple bills and unnecessary expenses. Homestay makes budgeting much easier.
Unlike traditional accommodation options, AHN does not require a bond or long-term contract.
What our students say
Our homestay hosts and students have some great things to stay about their experiences. From trying new food, going on adventures with their homestay families, improving their English and feeling safe and comfortable – our hosts and guests are happy to share their experiences.
About our hosts
Homestay hosts at AHN are carefully selected to ensure that our students are placed in environments that are not only safe and comfortable but also welcoming. Our hosts come from many cultural backgrounds and are truly interested in enjoying a shared cultural experience with their students. We conduct national background checks, in-home interviews, and complete home inspections. We stay in contact with both the host and the student during the homestay period. We want all visiting students to have the most positive experience possible when beginning their educational journey in Australia.
