The Host Family Program of Jacobs University is designed to ease the transition of new students to living in Germany. It is a non-live in situation aimed to promote cross-cultural understanding by fostering interaction between the students and the residents of Bremen. The individual relationships between the families and the students involve social get-togethers, outings, meals, phone calls, and companionship. Many students develop relationships with their host families that last for years after they graduate.
What to expect?
Your local host family provides you with a home away from home. They may call you over for meals, invite you to family events, give you an opportunity to periodically get away from campus on weekends and some would welcome your family when they visit you in Bremen. Other activities could include attending a cultural or sporting event, attending picnics, observing holidays, going to movies, or shopping together. Activities shared depend on the interests of the host family and the student.
Your Host Family?
Host families are single or married persons who desire to know more about the Jacobs international community and the diverse countries and cultures. Jacobs recognizes the importance of matching you with a family with whom you are comfortable with and so we request you to kindly complete the Host Family Survey.
