Can I arrive before the official scheduled arrival or stay on after the departure date?
No. Stanford does not arrange for your stay prior to your scheduled arrival date, nor can host families accomodate you before or after. The host families will refuse access to students if they show up in their homes before the due date unless the family specifically requests students to do so. The Paris Center can suggest a list of cheap hotels in Paris, should you be arriving early or leaving late. Please note as well that you cannot arrive late for Orientation and must arrive on the scheduled arrival date (no later).
