Overview

The Halifax school is on Hollis Street near the downtown waterfront. Its morning General English schedule leaves time to explore the harbour area after class. Students considering further study can ask about the Halifax university and college pathway, which has its own entry and progression requirements. Oxford International’s Halifax campus is in the downtown area near the waterfront. A learner who wants a morning course can use the rest of the day to practise English around the city. The school also offers longer daily schedules for students who want elective lessons. Those considering university or college should check the separate pathway requirements at the Halifax campus, because a short General English enrolment does not by itself establish progression. The Halifax host guide is useful for comparing an assigned room with a central residence, especially if the commute matters. The school’s brochure gives the street address as 1801 Hollis Street.

Courses

Morning 20 consists of 20 General English lessons of 45 minutes, or 15 hours each week. Semi-Intensive 26 and Intensive 30 add six or ten elective lessons respectively. Check the campus calendar for start dates and holiday closures. The school’s Canadian price guide says lessons missed on public holidays or school closures are not replaced. Morning 20 is the core group programme. Adding six or ten elective lessons increases teaching time to 19 hours and 30 minutes or 22 hours and 30 minutes at 45 minutes per lesson. Check elective availability before booking.

Fees

The 2026 four-week Morning 20 price uses the four-to-seven-week tier at CAD 360 per week. Tuition is CAD 1,440, enrolment CAD 185 and materials CAD 140. Add CAD 280 placement, four billed weeks of adult homestay and CAD 86.80 for 28 days of mandatory insurance at the listed school rate. The resulting estimate is CAD 3,331.80 for half board or CAD 3,403.80 for full board. Confirm the invoiced room nights and insurance dates. June 1 through August 31 adds CAD 42 per homestay week. Arrival and departure transfers are billed separately at CAD 200 and CAD 140. The four-week calculation includes CAD 1,765 for tuition, enrolment and materials. Four weeks of half-board room charges add CAD 1,200, compared with CAD 1,272 for full board. The remaining published items in the examples are placement and insurance. A stay entirely within the June-to-August supplement period would add CAD 168 if all four billed weeks qualify. Ask whether the residence alternative uses a different contract and keep optional airport transport outside the homestay subtotal.

Accommodation

Halifax homestay offers full board, half board and room-only stays. The Halifax factsheet describes a public transport journey of up to around an hour. Check the host address and route when the school assigns a room. The 2026 weekly rate is CAD 300 for half board and CAD 318 for full board. Extra nights are listed at CAD 63 and a special diet adds CAD 49 per week. The Halifax factsheet distinguishes a room-only booking from the meal plans. Ask where meals are served and what is included if you arrive outside usual hours. The price guide lists a Halifax residence with a single room and shared bathroom as another option; check the property and travel time separately.
