Become a host family
Your home can be the starting point for an international student's life in Canada — supported, transparent, and structured.
Why become a host family
Meaningful cultural exchange
Welcome an international student into your home.
Structured placement
We confirm your home, availability, and preferences.
Ongoing student support
We coordinate so you're not handling everything alone.
Respect for your routine
Matches are proposed based on your availability.
Basic expectations
- Provide a clean, safe private bedroom
- Offer basic meals (specifics vary by host)
- Maintain everyday family communication and support
- Follow local Canadian laws and community standards
