Student services

According to Conestoga’s International Office, the goal of homestay program is to create an enriching, rewarding and educational experience for both students and their host families. Students stay with their host families at least two months, with most choosing to stay four to six months. Some students form a close attachment with their host families and might stay for years. Many students, especially those from China, Japan and Korea, are in the English Language Studies program, but international students in degree programs can also choose homestay.

Bad experience

This is a mistake to take admission in Conestoga college.

Don't go
Anonymous rated 2 out of 5 stars

Some teachers are good and care. Most teachers could be nicer and be better at teaching. I'd describe it as negative.
