USH founder Emerson Torres explains the vision.

Getting An Education In The USA Should be Simple

At Universal Student Housing, we believe that the United States offers an education experience that is unparalleled. But for an international student the challenges and obstacles can be great. We believe that this process should be simplified, and that studying in the US should be a pleasant experience. That’s where USH can help, making the experience of finding great host families and matching them with terrific students easy and simple.

We Never Leave Your Side.

At USH, two values define us. First, our attention will be focused on you from the first phone call or email, through the entire homestay. Second, we do our best to be highly efficient, and always available. We love to provide a level of service that makes us different from other homestay agencies. (or companies?). We understand the unique challenges of international students, and we make every effort to make the entire process simple, fun, and memorable. Backed by sophisticated technology, our highly trained staff creates matches between international students and host families that result in experiences that everyone loves to remember.

Our matchmaking services are hard to beat.

With 15 years experience, USH has developed a seamless process that makes the entire homestay experience a true pleasure. We match you to a host family through a list of carefully chosen criteria, including preferences such as pets, ethnicity, and more.
