Since the number of students from Waterloo participating in these programs is limited each year, the Department has established the following priorities for eligibility:
- First priority will be given to students who are in the French Teaching Specialization program and have achieved a final overall average of 75% or better in their university French courses to date.
- Second priority will be given to students who are in an Honours French program and have achieved a final overall average of 75% or better in their university French courses to date.
- Third priority will be given to students who are in an Honours program and have achieved a final overall average of 70% or better in their university French courses to date.
Only students registered in a four-year program may participate. Students must be in good health and have the kind of flexibility and sensitivity to others that will allow for successful adjustment to an unfamiliar cultural setting.
