Housing
CSN does not have any on-campus housing, which means students either live with homestay families or in apartments.
Option #1 Homestay
Homestay service is coordinated by a private contractor, not a CSN employee. Home stay students live with Las Vegas families and generally will have access to a private or shared bedroom room, bath, kitchen and other facilities as a member of the family. Please plan on applying for homestay at least two months prior to your arrival. For more information about the homestay programs, please contact Ms. Stacy Burn at (702) 812-9188 or email Stacy Burn.
