Housing

LAPC helps refer students to housing accommodations with the students’ choice between dormitory-style housing, home stay, or standard apartments located near the school. Prices vary depending on which stay is chosen, but usually costs around $600 and up.

Status Advising

LAPC strives to provide valuable advice regarding U.S. visa and immigration procedures for international students. If we are unable to provide advice, or the topic is outside our area of expertise, students are advised to consult the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services website.
