On Tuesday we had an Skype meeting with some of the folks at the Université de Moncton. Below are some of the highlights of what we found out about the program!
- There will be approximately 100 students from around Canada and the U.S. studying at the Université during the length of our stay.
- Moncton is approximately 40% french speaking. However, French is 100% required and enforced on campus, even in the dorms.
- On June 30th is when we register, get our dorm keys and attend a welcome dinner. August 1st we take our language placement test, and August 2nd, classes begin.
- Each week day we will have class from 8:00am-11:45am. 3 times per week we will have work shops and on weekends we will have culture activities!
- Our dorms are single rooms/studios with a bathroom, mini fridge and a microwave.
- Weekday lunches will be provided in the cafeteria, while other meals will be covered by a weekly stipend which can be used at restaurants and at the grocery store.
- There is a mall about 10 minutes away from campus!
Though it's still 2 months off, the suspense is killing me! I can't wait to find out more!
À bientôt!
