INFORMATION FOR OUR MK HOMESTAY PROVIDERS
When you first apply to join our list of MK homestay providers you will need to access and read the following documents and, if you are happy to proceed, you should complete the homestay provider application form.
You will get an email from us to tell you if your application is successful and, if it is, then you will need to send us some photos of your home and the rooms you intend to use to host students. We will also ask you to complete a short blurb to introduce yourself and your home to students. None of this should include any personal details that could identify you ie your full name, address etc
The photos and blurb will be placed on our homestay providers webpage, which is password protected, and which only students who book homestay will be given access to. They will be able to view the information on this page and choose their homestay accommodation.
Once a student chooses your accommodation we will arrange to view this prior to the student's arrival to confirm that everything is in place and it meets with all the necessary requirements. Students like to live in accommodation that is clean, tidy, safe and
within reasonable distance from the city centre. Most students will need access to free WIFI and will require breakfast and evening meals and 3 meals at weekends. Some students will require 3 meals per day and some may prefer not to live in a house with large dogs. A few students may want to smoke but we advise that this is permitted outside only unless the family themselves are smokers and smoke inside the house.
We will aim to place students with families where they will be happy and we aim to ensure our host families always have students who they will enjoy hosting.
After we place a student with your family we request that you complete the feedback questionnaire below a few weeks after the student has moved in. However if there is a problem you must let us know immediately so that we can try to resolve this.
