Requesting Airport Pick Up
The following steps must be taken to ensure that a college representative will be at the airport to pick you up once you arrive in Vancouver:
- You must pay an additional Airport Pick Up fee of $100.00 (CAD). This fee should be included with your homestay fees when you apply for homestay.
- Your flight information (including date and arrival time, flight number, and airline) should be sent to the Columbia College Homestay office ([email protected]) at least 5 working days prior to your arrival. Airport pickup is not guaranteed if we receive late arrival details. Include in the email your full name, birth date, and your Columbia College ID number. Alternatively, you can also request airport pick up by filling out this form below.
