The same type of accommodation for every student may not be offered in Work and Travel Program. It varies according to the state of the students’ destination and the job they will work. For example, if the student works in a hotel, his/her accommodation is very likely to be a hotel room.
Some students stay in shared student housing with other Work and Travel students. This type of accommodation improves the student’s English level and enables them to interact with different cultures.
Some students can also stay in dormitory-type accommodations. It is a fun option for students who like crowded places.
While there are such alternatives among accommodation options, the cost issue varies according to these alternatives. Accommodation costs for Work and Travel students vary between 75 – 150 USD per week.
Fact that all the jobs offered by our sponsor, United Work Travel, are jobs with accommodation guarantee, our students do not have any trouble finding a place to stay when they go to America. In the United States, self-financed accommodation by students can be both very expensive and unsafe; therefore, jobs with accommodation guarantee should be preferred by students.
If there is any problem in the accommodation provided to the student by the sponsor, the accommodation is changed immediately and a new accommodation is provided to the student. The priority of our sponsor in this regard is to ensure that our students have a successful program.
You can contact your advisor for more detailed information about accommodation.
