Location and Facilities:

Boarding:
Our boarding halls are made up of 23 rooms, where two girls usually share each room. In order to foster interaction among students from different cultures, the director of boarding students makes a consistent effort to assign students from different countries as roommates.

Every room is equipped with a phone line with private voicemail for each student, Internet hook-up, bed, chest of drawers and desk for each student, flourescent lighting, walk-in closet, private bathroom with shower and tub, locker for valuables, fans and heaters. All rooms are cleaned once a week by a cleaning service.

Weekend life in the boarding hall is bustling. FSHA is close to Pasadena, which boasts many excellent retail stores, restaurants and movie theaters, as well as museums and cultural landmarks. The boarding program has special monthly activities, ranging from visiting local ski resorts, enjoying some of Southern California’s finest beaches, shopping at the outlets in the desert city of Palm Springs, or having fun at a nearby amusement park, such as Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knott’s Berry Farm or Magic Mountain.
