Homestay
Homestay in Burnaby
Living with a Canadian family is one of the most meaningful parts of studying abroad. It’s a chance to experience Canadian life, culture, and language in a warm, welcoming home — not just as a visitor, but as part of the family.

Like most Canadian students, you will be expected to follow your homestay family’s household rules and routines—including curfew. These expectations help create a safe, respectful, and positive homestay experience.
