This study uses content analysis to document the representation of the homestay experience, focusing on the portrayal of U.S. host families and exchange students on 16 study abroad programs' websites. Despite the surge of international students coming to the United States for secondary education and the pressing need to recruit host families, not much is known about how study abroad websites represent the U.S. homestay experience. The results of this study suggest that study abroad websites provide a traditional representation of U.S. host families, characterized by two White host parents (with or without children) hosting predominantly White and Asian exchange students. Inter-reality comparisons reveal an over-representation of White host families and Black exchange students in study abroad programs' websites, though the representation of White and Asian exchange students appears consistent with the shares of White and Asian exchange students expected in reality. Implications for study abroad programs are discussed.
