Homestay Accommodations
• Homestay is a housing program with emphasis on a first-hand introduction to Canadian culture and the Niagara Region.
• A homestay family is as important to a student’s experience as their classes.
• Wonderful local families provide support and assistance while students adapt to the lifestyle and demands of learning a second language.
• Homestay families are as diverse as the international students who attend Niagara College and have the desire to contribute to the lives of others.
• Most of our homestays are within close walking distance (10-20 minutes) of the College, and many families provide bicycles for the students, depending on the arrival date/season.
• Three nutritious meals a day are included for added convenience.
