The mission of POLY Languages Institute is to provide a fulfilling education to serious students and to create a positive learning environment. We are committed to providing excellent education and rendering great student services.

POLY offers student residence and homestay accommodation options. Students may request the Accommodation Arrangement Service on the Application Form; payment is due 20 days prior to their planned move-in date so that appropriate accommodations can be arranged. Students should receive the confirmation letter about 10 days prior to your scheduled move-in date.

 

Student Residence

Student Residences are independently owned and operated. However, Student Residences are arranged exclusively for POLY students, and they are available for all centers. Meals are not included, but students have full access to the kitchen. The students may book only up to 120 days at a time, if available. The Student Residences are easily accessible by bus or within walking distance. The rooms are furnished with a bed and a desk. The facilities also include T.V., internet access, refrigerator, and laundry machines (washer and dryer). The students must provide their own bed set (pillow, cover, and blanket) and all other living necessities.

 

Homestay

Homestay accommodations with English-speaking host families are available at all POLY centers. Homestay arrangements generally include two meals per day (breakfast and dinner), a private room with a bed, a desk, and more depending on the host family. Homestays are selected so that they are located within 30 minutes by public transportation from the POLY center. POLY staff will introduce up to three (3) host families.
