Firstly, they ask where you want to go before you start so that they know that you have decided where you will be going when it's time to do the groundschool. It's so that there are no gaps in your training and that you and EFT know what your plans are.
As for accomodation, the APP course is included ONLY for the time that you are in the USA ie. the first 3-4 months and then the final 3-4 months. Accomodation whilst you do the groundschool is up to you.
