Your parents are welcome to visit you, but be sure to call the office to make arrangements prior to purchasing tickets. It often works best for your parents to visit at the end of your semester or during your scheduled vacation days so you don’t miss any teaching days. You will not know your vacation dates until you arrive in-country (they are set by the host school) which can make planning a visit a little tricky. ILP cannot predict your vacation dates, so your parents will likely need to wait to purchase tickets or plan on visiting you after your ILP semester ends.

Friends and siblings are not allowed to visit during your semester unless they are accompanying your parent’s visit. If your friends and siblings would like to visit on their own, they can schedule a trip with you once your ILP semester is completed (if you choose to travel on your own afterward).
