Host a Japanese Student

Are you looking for an unforgettable experience for your family? Becoming a host family to a foreign student offers unparalleled enrichment—the kind of cultural, emotional, and intellectual wealth that no amount of money could ever buy.

Pitzer College in Claremont invites you to share your home with a Japanese student from Tokyo Women’s Christian University, Kobe Women’s University or Shukugawa Gakuin College.

Students are participating in an academic program organized by Pitzer including classes, field trips, and activities. They spend evenings and weekends with their host families. Families are compensated.

What You Offer: You!
Little kids, big kids, no kids…our host families come in all shapes and sizes! Host families often become so fond of their students that they form lifelong friendships, even traveling to the exchange students’ home countries to visit and meet their families and to experience what their daily lives are like.
