Being a Conversation Partner or Host Family to an International Student is a great way to make international friendships and expand your horizons. Conversation Partners meet with their student for 3 hours per week during the semester. Host Families meet with their student once every 2-3 weeks (this is not a Home-Stay program).

To become a conversation partner fill out this Application and return it to The Office of International Programs in Westside Hall, of UNCW's campus. You may also FAX a copy to us at 910-962-4053 ATTN: Maike Walbrecht. For a Host Family Application, please go to:
