Overview+for+Boarding+Options

The transition from living at home to living a new life at the Northwest School can be made easier for new students if they have already gained some basic skills and independence. The NWS understands that it is not easy for international students to find housing on their own. So, we offer three boarding options for them. The majority of the international students live in the NWS dormitory, which is located one block away from the school’s campus at 1411 Bellevue Ave. The dormitory is close to the Seattle downtown with its many cultural and recreational facilities. These students are allowed to leave on weekends and during breaks as long as it is approved by the residential advisors and the Head of Dormitory. Other living options, such as living with relatives and living with a host family, are also available for students who either have relatives in Seattle or are applying for a host family in advance. When you choose to live with relatives or live with a host family, it is important to consider the location so that you can easily access NWS. No matter which option you choose, parents have peace of mind knowing that their kid is able to focus on academic, sporting, or music commitments in a safe and caring environment. Each option has its advantages and disadvantages. Below, we will provide information and details for each. Dormitory Life Living with a Host Family Living with Relatives
