If you have a club or sports team looking to earn a few extra bucks! Let me know! Educatius offers a 200$ referral bonus for families that end up hosting! Last year we donated 800$ to the international club at a local school! All they did was spread the word, and passed on families that were interested in hosting! We did the rest!

Would you like to experience a new culture? Hosting an exchange student allows you to learn about a new country without leaving your home. Educatius also provides you a monthly stipend.

To ensure the satisfaction of our families and students, we have several requirements families must meet in order to be eligible to host. In turn, we provide a variety of support to our families throughout their experience.

Our Host Families Must: Live in an English-speaking household and provide a bedroom for the student with their own bed and closet/dresser as well as a quiet space in the home to study. Families must also provide three meals per day, complete an application/interview process and pass a criminal background check.

Our Host Families Receive An orientation to prepare for the students’ arrival as well as 24/7 local and national support with an emergency hotline.
