University Pathway Program

Students who complete the UPP at any of our campuses can continue onto one of our partner universities or colleges without writing an English language proficiency exam.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

PATHWAY 1	Complete Pathway 1 online and continue to one of CLLC’s partner colleges that require a 6.0 IELTS equivalent.
PATHWAY 2	Complete Pathway 2 and continue to one of CLLC’s partner colleges and universities that require a 6.5 IELTS equivalent.

Our pathway programs give international students experience with Canadian college and university curriculum style, an understanding of Professors’ expectations, and a chance to ask questions about college and university life in Canada. During the pathway program students prepare for college and university by completing a number of college and university level assignments. The class environment is similar to a college or university setting. Students do group presentations, have seminar style classes, complete research assignments, do in class writing, and much more. Our pathway program ensures students are well prepared for college and university life in Canada. This academic-based program focuses on time management, note-taking, exam preparation, academic presentations, and essay writing.

ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS

Students take a placement assessment (interview and written test) on the first day to determine their English level. Most students will need to do some time in our General English Intensive Program before beginning our Pathway Programs. Students can enter our Pathway 1 directly if they have an overall Academic IELTS score of 5.5 with no band below 5.0. Students can enter our Pathway 2 directly if they have an overall Academic IELTS score of 6.0 with no band below 5.5.
