CETUSA (Council for Educational Travel, USA) is a nonprofit student exchange organization that welcomes international high school students to the United States for cultural exchange programs. We are currently seeking welcoming host families in the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey areas for students arriving for the 2027 academic year.

Host families provide:

  • A welcoming and supportive home environment.
  • Three meals a day.
  • Transportation to and from school, which can be arranged through practical options such as carpooling, public transportation, or walking when feasible.

Hosting is a wonderful opportunity for families to experience another culture, share American traditions, and build lasting international connections. Families do not need to have previous hosting experience to express interest. This opportunity is entirely voluntary and unpaid.
