Accommodations
POLY offers student residence and homestay accommodation options. You may request
the Accommodation Arrangement Service on the Application Form; payment is due 20
days prior to your planned move-in date so that appropriate accommodations can be
arranged. You should receive the confirmation letter about 10 days prior to your
scheduled move-in date.
The check-in time must be notified to the center you plan to attend if you are not
arranging the airport transfer service with us. The check-in time must be between
7:00 am - 10:00 pm. If not, you must arrange your own accommodation for the night.
If you have requested the airport transfer service with us, we can recommend and
help you to book a motel/hotel near us.
Student Residence
Student Residences, exclusively for POLY students, are available at 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 of Student Residences
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 a host family.
Homestays are selected so that they are located within 30 minutes by public transportation
from the POLY center. We strongly recommend that you visit and interview host families
before you move in to the house. If you are not a local, book the first 30 days
with Student Residence so that you may visit and choose the host family of your
choice. We will introduce up to three (3) host families.
