Concordia University is now offering a bursary for international students who register for a French as a second language course.
The bursary is called Oui Can Help! and will help students access French language resources not only within Concordia, but also through out the city of Montreal.
Without French as a second or first language it is difficult to secure a job in Quebec. By setting up this bursary, Concordia is encouraging out of province students to stay within Quebec after University.
This bursary was made possible by the Quebec’s provincial government Secrétariat à la politique linguistique, Quebec’s ministry of Education, and the Canada-Quebec agreement for Minority-Language Education and Second-language Instruction.
Only those who are not fluent in French and are also enrolled in a French as a second language course can apply.
