You need to plan your flight itinerary so that you arrive in Eugene (or Portland for UO Portland graduate programs) prior to the start of International Student Orientation. Most students make temporary lodging plans until they can move into on-campus housing or off-campus apartment.
Temporary Short-term Homestay Program
New international students can request to stay with a local host family (for free) prior to the start of International Student Orientation and prior to moving into on- or off- campus housing. The maximum amount of time you can request to stay with a host family is one week.
