On Semester in Cusco, you will have two choices of housing at your disposal. Apartments: If you choose to live in student apartments, you will live in “La Casa de Don Ignacio,” just a few blocks from the main square, Plaza de Armas. Each apartment offers shared bedrooms, bathrooms, a living room, a small kitchen with a stove and refrigerator, a television and wireless internet access. The residence building has a TV room and computer room that all students will have access to. Housekeeping and changing sheets is included in the housing, and laundry can be done for the students who are charged a fee based on the weight of the clothing, which is returned and ironed after washing. Breakfast is provided to all students but other meals are self-catered. Students who prefer to live in a single room can do so for a different rate. By living a few blocks from the main square, you’ll enjoy the many attractions offered by the city of Cusco while you enjoy your home away from home! Homestays: If you choose the homestay option, you’ll have a chance to really immerse yourself in Peruvian culture! Students typically say that living with a local family was their favorite part of going abroad. You will be treated as a member of the family, with two meals a day (breakfast and dinner) being provided for you and bed linens, utilities, and laundry services being provided regularly. All the homestay families have been carefully interviewed and visited to ensure they provide a safe, comfortable, secure home that will help you integrate into a new culture.
