About Us

We are Irish

We are an Irish company which provides summer accommodation for J1 students in Chicago, San Francisco, New York and Boston. We have access to hundreds of apartments which we sub-let from May to August. Based in Ireland, we provide a much needed service for the thousands of students who travel to the US each summer.

First hand experience

We have first hand experience of the difficulties faced by J1 students because we’ve been there before and we’ve learned the hard way. By providing affordable accommodation in a great location, we give J1 students a home away from home.

We're here to help

Up until now, there has been no ‘Go-To’ website or organisation for J1 students to find accommodation. Many spend the first two weeks in costly hostels. By the time they find a suitable place for the summer, they are late to start and down quite a bit of money, not to mention the ordeal that comes along with finding somewhere suitable. We make it easy for you.

We manage your accommodation

Many Irish students have been scammed in recent years by rogue landlords (ourselves included). There is no one to turn to when things go wrong and with that in mind, we don’t just give you a home to live in, we also create a thriving community of Irish J1ers for you to live with while exploring your new city.

I would highly recommend coming in smaller groups and staying in J1 accommodation to maximise the amount of new people you meet and make the best out of your J1

Finding J1 accommodation turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as we ended up making so many great friends we would never have met otherwise

It’s hard to describe how much of a relief it is to have your accommodation sorted before you set foot on American soil, and landing a few thousand miles away with no worries whatsoever

A J1 in Chicago is one of the best experiences you’ll ever have, and if you really want to guarantee that, J1Accom should be the first call you make

On top of the indoor lounges, TVs and pool tables, both of the J1Accom buildings were topped with a pair of rooftop decks, perfect for Chicago’s long Summer nights
