With one of the lowest costs of living in Canada and very competitive tuition fees, students receive an excellent quality of education without the heavy price tag. NB’s International Student Program attracts students from ages 12-18 from all over the world. New Brunswick high schools offer an impressive variety of programs, including International Baccalaureate (IB) programs, supported by a technologically advanced English school system. Visiting students immerse themselves in meaningful language and cultural experiences that reflect the diversity and open-mindedness of Canadian life.
