Homestay

Stay With a Canadian FamilyStay With a Canadian Family!

Living with a Canadian family with similar interests to yours is a great way to practise your English.

The Calgary Board of Education homestay program locates excellent host families in the City of Calgary. Our process for admitting host families into the Calgary Board of Education homestay program is a rigorous one. All families:

  • Have had a thorough interview to determine suitability;
  • Have had a homestay inspection;
  • Passed a police record check;
  • Are enthusiastic to receive international students

Once the student is placed in the home, supervision and support are provided by our Homestay Coordinator throughout the program. International students and their parents have access to the Homestay Coordinator 24 hours a day in the event of a problem or emergency.

If you would like us to arrange for homestay accommodation, please complete the International Homestay Application Form (.pdf document) and return it to us.

Placement and Airport Pick-up fee: $215 CAD (due at the time of application)
