St. George’s International Program

Your international student journey begins with St. George’s School of Montreal.

In our vibrant learning community, international students find more than just a place to learn — they find a second home where they can confidently express themselves and explore their identities.

School in Canada

More and more students and families are choosing to pursue their studies in Canada and in Quebec each year. Canada is recognized and respected worldwide as a leader in education.

Support for International Students

Language Support

One-on-one support is provided for every student who is not a fluent English speaker. If a student demonstrates any limitations in the classroom, they are offered the support they need until they are prepared to follow along.

Many international students arrive at St. George’s with limited French skills. French language support for these students is designed with the objective of eventually integrating them into mainstream French classes. Students in early Elementary School are usually integrated into the classroom right away.

General Support

International students are also supported by an advisor who closely follows their progress and wellbeing, and acts as a liaison between the student, their parents, and, if applicable, their homestay family. They are available to help students navigate any cultural differences and ensure that these are taken into consideration in academic contexts.

St. George’s Homestay Program

For students who have come to Canada to pursue their education and do not have family in Montreal, our St. George’s Homestay Program provides a nurturing environment as they complete their studies. St. George’s host families are usually already active members of our community: they are faculty, staff or parents of current students. They readily welcome international students into their homes and support them throughout their time at St. George’s, ensuring that they are fully immersed in the supportive culture of our school.
