As an EFS student, you will have the opportunity to visit some of Canada’s most popular attractions. This means you will get the opportunity to use your English outside of the classroom. You will be invited to events planned and attended by your peer leaders; a fantastic opportunity to practice your English, gain invaluable social skills, and have fun!
In EFS, you will benefit from:
- 25 hours (approximately) of intensive English language programming per week
- multiple levels from high beginner to advanced (if student numbers permit)
- placement test on the first day of the program to determine a student’s language ability
- conversation practice and cross-cultural activities with University of Waterloo students
- accommodation in an on-campus university residence
- trips to local attractions, including Toronto and Niagara Falls
- final achievement report (transcript)
- certificate from Renison University College at the University of Waterloo
The EFS program is recommended for students with a CEFR level ranging from A2 to C1 (high-beginner to advanced). EFS is recommended for up to two consecutive sessions.
