Housing/Accommodation • Homestay / Host Family The vast majority of students opt for the homestay, as it is normally included and we feel it is an integral part of the immersion program. But for those who wish to make other arrangements, we can make housing suggestions and subtract the cost of the homestay from the tuition. Program Costs US $150/week Costs Include:  25 hours of private instruction; homestay with all meals provided every day; afternoon and weekend school activies including trips to villages and markets, speakers and discussions; cultural and arts activities; speakers and guests; discussion of the social and political realities of Guatemala; dance classes; and more. Personal costs for optional activities, like bus fare to reach a village, is extra but minimal. Dates Since all instruction is one-on-one, you may start on any Monday of the year and study for any number of weeks. If you are receiving academic credit through your university, your university credit will apply to a specific term but your attendance dates at the Spanish school are flexible unless your university has specific requirements.
