Placement
Placement is reserved and confirmed on a first come first serve basis due to limited placements available at the universities.

Accommodation
Allied Gateway will do its best to meet your needs when choosing accommodation. However, Allied Gateway can't guarantee the availability of required accommodation if you choose to live on campus dorm. In cases of such, Allied Gateway will provide you with other options available at the first time.

There may be a delay in sending the accommodation placement to students due to late receipt of the application, changes in arrangements.

Host family changes will not be permitted based solely on an individual's request. It may occur that two students or more stay in one family due to an application delay, last minute host family cancellation or change etc.
It may occur that a student is placed with several different families due to an application delay, last minute host family cancellation or change etc. Please be aware that your host family may be changed in the event of a sudden accident, sickness, natural disaster, or due to their financial situation etc. If this occurs, you may be placed temporarily in a hotel or dormitory until a new placement can be made. In this case, we will pay for any additional accommodation charges and transportation fees, if these fees exceed your initial payment. Please note that the cost of meals and other individual expenses will not be covered.

Home stay
Please understand and accept the following conditions below about host family: The lifestyle and customs (toilet, bathroom etc) of each family will vary in each household. Please follow what the other members of the family do. Please make every effort to clearly communicate your thoughts and feelings. Every family has different meal times. Please follow your family's schedule.

Changes
