Experience Our School Culture Student Life in Action
Live With an American Family
Faith Christian Academy offers students an invaluable opportunity to receive a world-class education while immersing themselves in different cultures. Rather than placing international students in a traditional dormitory, we offer them the opportunity to live with American families. This approach fosters a more personalized and supportive environment, enhancing both their academic and social experiences.
Host families are carefully selected through background checks, reference checks, and personal interviews. They also receive thorough orientation and continuous support throughout the program.
Application Process for International Students
The FCA’s International Program Office practices rolling admissions, meaning that an international student can apply at any time. FCA begins receiving International Student applications for the next year’s fall semester as early as a year in advance. We recommend that international students apply as early as possible.

After completing the online application, please send the completed supporting documents promptly to finalize your admissions package.
