2009 Accommodation at

ILSC Toronto www.ilsc.ca ILSC offers several accommodation options to help meet a variety of student needs. Further information can be obtained about any of the options by contacting ILSC’s Homestay Department by email at [email protected]. Please note that there is a $215.00 Placement Fee for all of the programs listed below, which is due in advance to confirm booking.

FULL BOARD HOMESTAY ACCOMMODATION Homestay accommodation is our most popular program at ILSC Toronto. The Homestay Program provides our students with the opportunity to learn English by living with a Canadian family. The most rewarding aspect of the homestay option is that students, in addition to practicing the language they came to study, have the opportunity to experience Canadian culture through music, television, food, etc. while living with a host family. ILSC offers safe and welcoming homestay families, many of whom have been hosting ILSC students since our school began. Full Board Homestay includes a private bedroom with three meals per day. Most of our homestay families are located in the Greater Toronto Area, approximately 45 to 50 minutes by public transit from ILSC.

Homestay Accommodation Rates: $29.00/night Adult: (18 and over) $812.00/4 weeks

Minor: (under 18 y/o)

HALF-BOARD HOMESTAY ACCOMMODATION The Half Board Homestay program is for students who would like to have a little more independence and freedom in terms of their everyday lunch. The Half Board Homestay program allows the student to live with the family, just like regular homestay, but it only includes 2 meals a day, breakfast and dinner. The students are responsible for purchasing their own lunch every day. Other than having no lunch provided in the Half Board Homestay program, the details and benefits are identical to the “Homestay Accommodation”. Most of our homestay families are located in the Greater Toronto Area, approximately 45 to 50 minutes by public transit from ILSC. Half-Board Homestay Accommodation Rates: $27.00/night Adult: (18 and over) $756.00/4 weeks

Minor: (under 18 y/o)

$28.00/night $784.00/4 weeks

ROOMSTAY HOMESTAY ACCOMMODATION ILSC is one of the first schools to offer Roomstay Accommodation. Roomstay provides our students with the same benefits and experience as Homestay, however the meals are not included in the package. Students will be placed with a homestay family and will have a private bedroom. The homestay family will not cook for the students, but they will have access to the kitchen to prepare their own meals. In most cases, the student will be sharing the kitchen with the homestay family. Most roomstay families live approximately 45 to 50 minutes by public transit from ILSC. Roomstay Accommodation Rates: $20.00/night Adult: (18 and over) $560.00/4 weeks
