French-language colleges and universities

Study in French

Ontario has:

• two publicly funded French-language colleges
• nine French-language and bilingual schools offering university programs

You can pursue post-secondary studies entirely in French, while also learning the specialized vocabulary of your field in English. You can become a fully bilingual professional.

Study in French at university

You can pursue university studies entirely or partially in French.

If you are not already bilingual, this is a great opportunity for you to “ease” into the other language and graduate as a fully bilingual professional.

Ontario-Quebec Health Study program

A special program designed to:

• train health professionals to deliver health services in French in Ontario
• provide French-speaking Ontario students with more opportunities to pursue studies in French.

How it works

Each year, the 2 participating universities in Quebec (Université Laval and Université de Montréal) reserve up to 5 spots for Ontario students, for a total of 15 places in these programs:

In Ontario, these programs are not available in French.

Agree to return to Ontario

If accepted, you have to agree to:

• return to Ontario to practice for at least 24 months
• set up your practice in a part of the province designated for services in French

You will need to start practising in Ontario within 6 months of graduating.

Fees: You pay the same as Quebec students, and could be eligible for OSAP. Ask your school financial aid office.

Who is eligible

To be eligible, you need to:

• be an Ontario resident
• be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident
• be able to study in French
• intend to study full time
