living with a host family
Our partner organization is responsible for the placement of students while in Spain. Host families are screened, interviewed, and selected based on the student profile. Host families are responsible for providing a safe environment and accepting the host student as a member of their family. Families offer to host students because of their interest in learning about new cultures and wish to build a relationship with their host “son” or “daughter”. CIEE defines hosts as single parents, couples with or without children, or retired persons, without restriction as to race, color, religion, economic status, or geographical location. We ask that you be open minded about your host family placement, and when filling out your application, supply us with as much information about yourself as possible to ensure that we are equipped with the information we need. We trust our partners abroad to match you to your host family. Only in exceptional situations will host family placements be changed prior to departure.
