Since 1980 the Language Centre has been providing
outstanding English instruction to students from all over
the world. Our students say they are very happy with the
courses and activities offered. Approximately half of our
students are preparing to continue into degree studies at
the university, so each course has a strong focus on
language learning. Graduates from our Intensive English
Advanced Level can enter more than 100 University of
Saskatchewan degree programs without further English
testing. Many students have developed lifelong friendships
with classmates, teachers and homestay families. Saskatoon
has a population of approximately a quarter of a million
people. Our city offers all of the features of city life in
a beautiful, safe, friendly setting along the South
Saskatchewan River. The University of Saskatchewan is a
major medical-doctoral university. It also has one of the
most beautiful campuses in Canada.
