Students whose first language is not English must submit official reports with acceptable scores from the Michigan English Language Test, the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the CanTest, the International English Language Training System (IELTS) or the Canadian Academic English Language Test (CAEL).
The Mount has a University Bridging Program for students who come close to meeting our language requirements. Students who do not submit test scores or who fall below our part-time requirements will be required to study full-time English as a Second Language (ESL) at East Coast School of Languages, International Language Institute or Canadian Language Learning College.
