Who is the program designed for? (FUTURE READY)

The Future Ready program is designed for high school students who are…

  • between the ages of 15-17
  • interested in experiencing life and studies at a Canadian university (Waterloo boasts a vibrant campus life year-round), and
  • motivated to build knowledge and skills as they engage with some of the world’s most challenging issues.

*Please note the Future Ready program is not a language program. It is intended for students with a high-intermediate or advanced level of English (minimum B2 CEFR level). A language assessment and oral interview will be administered following registration to ensure student enrollment in the program. To confirm your language level, you can complete the free Oxford online English test.

NOTE: Students must be born between 2008 and 2010 to have their application to Future Ready 2026 reviewed.
