Background

Atlantic Education International (AEI) through its International Student Program (ISP) welcomes youth (aged 11-18) from around the world to come to New Brunswick to study in the Anglophone sector of our public education system. Once students arrive in New Brunswick, they live with a New Brunswick host family, attend classes with New Brunswick students and participate in extra-curricular activities both at school and in their communities.

The heart of the New Brunswick ISP is its homestay program. Each student who participates in the New Brunswick ISP is closely matched with a host family who lives in the area of the school that they will attend.
