International 6th Form College

Choice of accommodation

Where a student lives strongly contributes to ensuring their studies are a positive experience. Both types of accommodation ensure that our international students get the very most out of their studies at College and their overall experience of living in a foreign country for the first time.

International students who study at Bexhill College have a choice of accommodation; the College's student house or UK family 'Homestay'. The student house accommodation is just a 2 minute walk from the College gates and offers a choice of bedrooms, most with en-suite bathrooms, along with the option to include a full-board catering package. Alternatively, you can choose a 'Homestay' which will enable you to experience the real British culture. You will stay with a British family in their home and will have the opportunity to practice conversational English with them. Great care is taken to find the best choice for each individual student and our Homestay accommodations are regularly visited by the International Student officer and are checked to ensure student safety and comfort.

College Accommodation has a refundable deposit of 4 weeks' rent. Homestay has a refundable deposit of £350.
