Jordan Housing

SLU students will live with Jordanian families in private homes, giving them an opportunity to practice their Arabic and to learn about family life in Jordan. Students are typically housed with one other student, in a host family that has been carefully screened by AMIDEAST/Jordan All host families are Arabic-speaking; English, however, is spoken in most of the homes.  All housing is within Amman.  Students living with host families will be provided with all meals by their host families but may find that some days it is not possible to return to the family for lunch because of class schedules.
