High School Program

The ICES Canada High School Program offers students aged 14 to 18 the chance to experience life in Canada, staying with a host family and attending either public or private schools, with options for 5-month or 12-month programs. Whether you're looking for a city experience near Vancouver, Ottawa, or Montreal, a smaller town by the Pacific Ocean, or life in the mountains near one of Canada's most famous ski resorts, our programs offer both French and English options. Through our Choice Program, students and parents can select the perfect location for their exchange adventure.

High School Experience

The ICES High School Experience offers students aged 14 to 18 the chance to live in Canada for a shorter duration of 3 to 4 months. Students can stay with a host family and attend either public or private schools. Our programs include options for both English and French immersion, providing students with the opportunity to enhance their language skills while experiencing Canadian culture.

ICES Canada Camps: We organize 4 to 6-week camp experiences for various student profiles:

  • College Experience: Students attend programs at colleges or universities in Vancouver or Toronto, featuring English classes and excursions.

  • High School Experience: Participants stay with host families and enjoy daily activities in the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows School Districts, British Columbia.

Each program enriches students' experiences while enhancing their language skills and cultural understanding.

ICES Canada programs were essential to my exchange experience. Clear information and excellent support for students and parents. I highly recommend them!
