Student Services: Social Program
Social Program Social Program

The US is a vast and wonderful country, offering many great attractions whichever center you choose. We organize a fun-filled social program that fits with each season, offering many opportunities for students to mix and make friends with people from all over the world.

All students of International House are members of the Student Club. Information on monthly events are posted on the Social Program board in the Common Room, and the Social Program Coordinator is available for at various times to help students obtain information and/or tickets. In addition, students are reminded about upcoming events and activities in the student newspaper, InHouse News, published each Friday.

The Social Program Coordinator will arrange one free activity and at least one paid activity during the week, and one paid weekend activity every other week. Every 6 weeks, students will have the chance to go on a paid overnight trip. All activities arranged by the school will be accompanied by the Social Program Coordinator or another member of staff.

Have a look through the list of things we do in each center, then click on the activity that looks interesting to you which will link you to that activity site. Have fun exploring!
