Your Home in Southern California
As a UCR University Extension student, you have several options for housing depending on your length of stay, interests, and preferences. During your stay here in sunny Southern California, you will maximize your cultural exchange, gain local insight, improve your English, and learn about American culture. Whether you want to stay with an American family to fully absorb the typical day-to-day lifestyle, or live in an apartment to experience campus life and meet students from the U.S., your experience will provide a plethora of opportunities to understand and engage in American culture.
Please note that housing options fill quickly, and we recommend applying for housing at least 30 days prior to the date that you’d like to move-in to allow time for processing and preparation of the apartment.
