Our Programs

We understand that there is not one specific program that suits everyone. Before choosing one, think about what you hope to accomplish in your time abroad:

Are you interested in:

• a rural or an urban setting?
• a large school offering many extra-curricular activities or a "smaller-than-average" size school providing more individual attention?
• a half-year experience or a full academic year abroad?
• experiencing your first time learning French as a second language, or improving your French skills to a more proficient level?
• living your year surrounded by the grandeur of Canadian nature or experiencing the dynamic ambiance of one of our cities?
