NSISP Student Passports

Created by student ambassadors, the Student Passport is an innovative tool to help encourage local engagement between international students, host parents, student ambassadors, and homestay coordinators.


The passport showcases different seasonal activities the students can participate in and places of interest the students can visit during their time in Nova Scotia.

Every NSISP student receives a passport at orientation and the student ambassadors are trained in its effective use.

  • The passport is divided into 10 monthly sections showcasing beautiful and unqiue places in the province, as well as a monthly calendar which highlight holidays, activities, and dates of interest.
  • Students are given different monthly photo challenges that incorporate different seasonal and cultural events and activities.
  • Students are encouraged to complete all of these tasks and there are monthly photo contests on the NSISP Facebook and Instagram pages.
