Enrolling is EASY at Université de Moncton. All it takes is one phone call to get things in motion! If you are interested in enrolling at UdeM, your first step is to call Mr. Marcel Guisset, our French as a Second Language coordinator and teacher. After a brief conversation, he will evaluate your French oral skills and tell you if you are a suitable candidate for UdeM. This is the case for most students who follow French Immersion Programs in English schools.

Contact Mr. Guisset by telephone at (506) 858-4305 or 1-800-363-8336, ext. 2 (Moncton Campus) or by email at marcel.guisset@umoncton.ca. He will address all of your questions concerning the program.

A standardized written evaluation is also available for students who wish to know more about their French skills.

The written evaluation is mandatory for those who would like to bypass our Immersion Program, called Groupe-Pont, or for those who wish to enrol in programs that require a high proficiency in French, such as Translation or Journalism (Information-Communication). These programs are open to non-Francophones, providing they meet certain specific criteria.

For those who live outside of the Moncton area, the written test can be forwarded to and monitored by your school or by appointment (see back cover for campus visit details).

How it works:As a non-Francophone student, you will apply for admission into the undergraduate program of your choice at Université de Moncton (Education, Science, Business, Arts Programs, etc.), as would a Francophone student. During the first year of your bachelor’s degree, concurrently with your other courses, you will follow an integrated set of four French language courses (two per semester), specifically tailored for Anglophones, and known as Groupe-Pont or “Bridge Program”.

After the first year, once you’ve finished the Groupe-Pont program, you will not need any additional French language courses, unless you choose to specialize in Translation or Journalism (Information-Communication).

Your Groupe-Pont courses will be credited as electives. As a result, the time required to obtain your bachelor’s degree at UdeM (and become fully bilingual) is the same as for Francophone students.

Conditions: In addition to the program’s entrance requirements, the only condition necessary to be accepted in an undergraduate degree at UdeM, and in the Groupe-Pont program, is that your French speaking and comprehension skills are adequate (see left page and call Mr. Marcel Guisset).

Courses: The courses offered within the Groupe-Pont program will help you improve your written skills. You will have the opportunity to experience the French language and culture first hand through many campus activities. This will facilitate your transition to campus life, help you become fluently bilingual as well as increase your overall confidence in French.

The Groupe-Pont program includes two mandatory courses each semester, and one optional course:

1. A study of French grammar (FRLS 3562 and FRLS 3572);

2. A study of the written structure (FRLS 4532);

3. A study of oral French (FRLS 3552);

4. The development of French vocabulary (FRLS 3532 and FRLS 4522) is an optional course, offered on the Web.

Frequently Asked QuestionsAt UdeM, can a non-Francophone student get a degree in the same amount of time as a Francophone student? Yes. The four required Groupe-Pont courses are credited as electives. As a result, the time required to obtain your bachelor’s degree at UdeM (and become fully bilingual) is the same for Francophone students.

After I complete my first year, do I have to take more French courses than a Francophone? No. Non-Francophone students are not required to take any additional French language courses other than the four required in the Groupe-Pont program. You are exempt from all other French courses unless you wish to earn a degree in Translation or Journalism (Information-Communication). Because of the nature of these programs, their specific language requirements may require additional French courses.

Could I get low marks because of my level of French? During your first two years at UdeM, you will have the special status of “Non-Francophone student”. This status ensures that you will not fail or be penalized because of a lack of written skills in French.

Regulation 6.2.5 allows you to write your essays and exams in English if you so choose. Most professors will encourage you to write all your papers in French but, because of your special status, they can choose to not give you a lower mark for a lack of written skills in your second language.

In the Groupe-Pont, am I just going to repeat what I studied in school? Absolutely not. The Groupe-Pont curriculum is completely different from the curriculum of French courses offered in public schools. The composition course is totally original and deals with both improving your own writing style and learning self-correction techniques. The grammar course will review fundamental structure that you studied in high school but will go much further. You will find these courses interesting and engaging.

Groupe-Pont is tailored to your specific linguistic needs, because your questions and challenges are different from those of Francophone students. Experience shows that non-Francophone students taking the Groupe-Pont program generally do better in French than those who insist on taking French courses aimed at Francophones.

Can I count on help with my French during my studies at UdeM? Of course! You can count on the help of your professors in the French courses, as well as in writing papers, for the entire duration of your bachelor’s degree. You will also be assigned a student mentor who can help guide you if you need help.
