OISE’s commitment to excellence goes beyond purely academic matters to include all aspects of your stay. In this respect accommodation is very much an integral part of the course. Each school therefore has a dedicated accommodation officer whose role is to ensure that students have a comfortable, welcoming place to go to after a hard day’s study.

To maximise the opportunities for speaking the language, OISE has a policy of never allowing two students of the same mother tongue to stay in any one host family.

All students have a single room.

Each host family is selected and monitored according to strict criteria laid down by OISE. Houses must be comfortable, the hosts welcoming and, above all, genuinely interested in receiving students and helping them to develop fluency in the language.
