International Program application process

A One-of-a-Kind Global Classroom

Our international program is a key part of our international mission, welcoming students from France or AEFE schools around the world. As an accredited AEFE school, we offer the same French Ministry of Education curriculum you already follow, integrated with the Alberta curriculum to enhance your English language skills. Students live with a host family during the stay. 

Admissions process

Apply using our online portal and select “international program” application. An application costs $250. The most recent report card is required.

Step

Once your application is received, a meeting with the upper school principal and the director of advancement is set up. This helps us get to know the student and parents’ interest in the program, why they applied and to answer any questions you might still have. 

Step

A recommendation from a teacher will be sent to the school.

An admissions offer is sent from the school and a separate application must be done with Canada Homestay Network. A formal letter of acceptance will be sent for use for visa / customs applications.

Our Global Community in Action

What was more attractive to me was being in an English atmosphere, with an English-speaking family surrounded by English speakers while continuing my studies towards the French Baccalauréat.
