ESL programs aim to enhance and expand your English language abilities (including reading, writing, listening, and speaking) while deepening your understanding of specialized topics like grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and cultural knowledge. Credits earned from these courses are transferable, and enrollment is open to students across all academic departments.
This program targets advanced learners of English as a second or foreign language. It can be incorporated into a 120-credit Honour's bachelor's degree, either as a double major or a major-minor combination. After applying, the Admissions Office will provide details and a link for the mandatory language proficiency assessment, which plays a crucial role in the admission decision.
