Housing
Participants live with carefully selected German families or in student residences. All host-families live within reasonable 
distance from the school. Single room and half board (2 meals) daily, 3 meals daily on weekends. Students arrive on the Sunday prior to starting date (Monday), and departs on the Saturday after the course finishes. Students have much independence and flexibility. Costs $400 per week for host family, and $250 per week for residence.
CSA believes it is easiest to learn when everything around you is as it should be. Our carefully selected host families are very good at recognizing what their guests would like in order to make their stay as pleasant as possible. If preferred, CSA would also be glad to reserve a suitable hotel room. If you want to arrange your own housing, that's okay with us.
