FAQ: When Will We Place a Student With You?
Hosting during these windows means you could welcome a group of enthusiastic students for a few weeks, sharing your home life with them during their time in Australia.
We can’t give an exact date, as placements depend on careful screening, finding the right match for your household, and availability. Applications arrive throughout the year.
Peak application periods: Seasonal Student Arrivals & Demand
Peak periods are January–April and July, while September–December are generally quieter. Short-term group tours (2–6 weeks) are most popular after February. University students typically arrive in January, followed by long-term English students from February, with average stays of 3–24 months.
Fresh, Wholesome Home-Cooked Meals
At Anshin Homestay, we encourage our hosts to provide home-cooked, healthy, and nutritious meals that help students thrive. Starting the day with a protein-packed egg burger for breakfast fuels energy, concentration, and wellbeing, giving students the best start to a productive day of study and Australian life.
