Future Homestays
Through 91̽»¨app's homestay program, students experience life as a member of a Canadian family in a warm, welcoming, and safe home environment.
Living with a homestay family provides international students with the true Canadian experience and exposes students to many unique activities and events. Living in a Canadian home also gives students excellent opportunities to practice their English or French language skills.
91̽»¨app homestay families are carefully chosen. All homestay families are interviewed and must pass security checks. Homes are also inspected to make sure students will be living in a safe, healthy and supportive environment.
Homestay families provide:
- A private, furnished room (bed/bedding and dresser or closet, and desk, chair and lamp) with a window which opens far enough to exit and close to a smoke detector
- Three healthy daily meals, plus snacks
- Access to washroom/bathing and laundry facilities with shared basic products
- A key to the home
- A positive and supportive atmosphere in which to study and live
- English language spoken in students' presence.
