Check out the ACM programs, too; they allow non ACM-students to participate in some of the study abroad programs and they have pretty specialized programs, too.
Your program sounds like ISEP Direct. I’m not sure I would advise using it unless your son has already lived abroad. ISEP is only a good deal if you don’t pay full tuition at your home institution.
What is your son studying and how advanced is he? Some people here might have suggestions for study abroad programs that your son might be able to apply for/enroll in.
re: making friends with the locals, it’s typically easier if you’re attending a school in a town rather than a big city, and if you try to meet with the students involved in the English club.
