Living with a Canadian family is a great way for international students to learn the language and the culture of Canada. Host families are given a unique opportunity to learn about another culture and to help a student learn about Canada and improve their English.

Homestay with a Canadian family includes:

• A private bedroom
• A desk or table at which to study
• Three healthy meals a day (at least one prepared), seven days a week
• English conversation and family interaction
• High speed internet access
• Airport pick-up where possible (from Medicine Hat airport only)

Monthly fee: $650

Homestay fees are paid by the student directly to the family and not to Medicine Hat College. All fees are subject to change.

How to Apply:
