Homestay Information for Students

Families / Matching Students and Families / Fees / Homestay Events

We have been operating our own homestay program since the very beginning of the International Student Program. Over the years we have gained considerable experience and expertise, and parents of International Students can be assured that we do our best to ensure student safety and comfort. Our carefully selected host families open their hearts and homes to enable students to experience Canadian Culture first hand.

Families

Because of Langley’s strong sense of community, we have many families who support our program. Families have comfortable homes, and students are included and made to feel like they are one of the family.
They are carefully screened before being allowed to host our students, and attend information sessions and are given comprehensive handbooks to guide them. Families must provide: 

  • A private room with a bed, desk and lamp, and a dresser.
  • 3 substantial meals a day and snacks.
  • Most families live within a 15 minutes walk from the school.  If families live further away they must drive the students to school.

Matching Students and Families

We ask for details about your family in our homestay application - the more detail you can provide, the better chance we will find a close match for a family. Student may want to prioritize what are the most important factor for them. When we have selected a family fo ryou we will email you a profile with picture so that you may see your new home, and start to make contact with your new family

Homestay Fees

  • CA$750 per month paid directly to the homestay family.
