Schools

International students are placed in schools where there is space and program availability. You may request a specific school based on the list of available schools below and we will make every attempt to accommodate your request. However, Global Learning has the right to make the final placement decision. Please note that not all Calgary schools can accept international students. 

Acceptance to our schools is for a maximum of one year only. The CBE will make every effort to offer continued registration in subsequent years if requested but as space is limited, we cannot guarantee future availability.
