If you’re interested in exploring a different culture and making a new international friend, come join Middlebury College’s Friends of International Students (FIS) host program! International Student & Scholar Services (ISSS) is now recruiting hosts for our program this fall.
Don’t worry, your international student won’t live with you. You’ll have the opportunity to host them on visits to your home or trips around the local area or join them on campus for events. This is a great chance to bond over shared interests, practice a language, or cook together. The possibilities are endless!
Wondering how to get involved?
Every potential new host family is expected to attend an information session so we can meet you and share important details about the program. ISSS will hold a series of information sessions about the program on Zoom throughout the upcoming months.
Here are the dates of our upcoming Zoom information sessions:
- Monday, July 29, 12:15-1 pm
- Thursday, August 1, 5:30-6:15 pm
