CASCADIA UNDERAGE STUDENT HOUSING POLICY
It is Cascadia College’s policy that all students under the age of 18 live with a homestay family in order to ensure their safety while
attending classes in the United States. Cascadia College strongly recommends that parents keep their child in a homestay where
they can be monitored and cared for until the age of 18, when they are legally considered to be adults in the U.S.
If parents decide to allow their underage child to live anywhere other than with a homestay family, they must sign the Housing
Policy Waiver below.
I hereby grant permission for my child to arrange for housing in an apartment/room for rent, etc. contrary to Cascadia College’s
policy that all underage students reside in a homestay. I understand the consequences of allowing my underage child to live
unsupervised and release Cascadia College from any and all liabilities in regards to any harm that may come to my child as a result
of my choosing to disregard their underage homestay policy.
