Housing Board

Welcome to the Faculty of Education Housing Board.

Seeking Accommodation

This service is provided as a convenience for Faculty of Education students and is intended for short-term accommodation postings suitable for on-campus weeks at Queen's. Please note that some landlords are also willing to rent room(s) during the practicum teaching placements if they are in Kingston.

List a Property

If you list your property it will be available on our website for public access.

Education students who complete their practice teaching outside of the Kingston area will need short-term accommodation in Kingston at various points in the year while they are attending Education classes. We invite your participation in accommodating these students on a relatively short-term basis (weekly and/or monthly over a span of eight months). If you would like to rent your room on a long-term basis (continuously or for more than eight months), please contact the Queen's Accommodation Listing Service.

Would you consider opening your home to one or more of our students for any of the following periods of time?

Fall Term Residency (On-Campus Sessions)

All students will be on campus from 2 September to 30 September 2011, and again from 31 October to 18 November 2011.

Winter Term Residency (On-Campus Sessions)

All students will be on campus from 3 January to 10 February 2012, and again from 9 to 27 April 2012.

Fall-Winter Term Practicum Teaching Placements
Depending on practicum teaching placements, students may also request extended residency for one or more of the practicum teaching blocks if they are in Kingston: 3 October to 28 October 2011, 21 November to 16 December 2011, 13 February to 9 March 2012, and 19 March to 5 April 2012.

Summer Session

In addition, participants in Continuing Teacher Education courses will need accommodation between 2 May and 27 May 2011, and both CTE participants and Teacher Candidates in the Technological Education Internship Program will need accommodation on various dates between July 4 and August 5, 2011.

Conditions for providing housing will vary from one situation to another. You may wish to offer a bed and breakfast arrangement, room with full board, or room without meals. Last year, prices ranged from $100 to $225 per week or from $400 to $1000 per month.

We would be grateful for any assistance you can give in providing the participants of this program with a home away from home. All you need do is fill in the on-line registration form and click on the "Submit" button. Interested students will take the initiative to contact you directly.
