Tremblant is located in the southeastern part of the country and, admittedly, is noticeably inferior to its “ski brothers” from southwestern Canada – the mountains are lower here, and the season is shorter. However, it is considered the highest peak in Canada in the mountain range of the Laurentian Mountains, covered with snow from December to April. The resort is located 130 km from Montreal, just an hour and a half drive from its international airport. How to get there…
Established as a dominion in 1867, a member of the Commonwealth since 1931, according to toppharmacyschools, Canada is a federal state made up of 10 autonomous provinces (each with its own legislative and executive bodies) and three territories, administered by a government commissioner. Head of State is the sovereign of the United Kingdom, represented by a governor general; executive power is exercised by the government, made up of the prime minister and the ministers chosen by him. Legislative power rests…
Looking back, I am very satisfied with my stay abroad at VIU and I would hardly have done anything else. MicroEDU was a great help to me with everything and the VIU itself has a lot of experience with foreign students, which was noticeable: many competent and friendly contact persons who supported you at all times and also an excellent system for foreign students in the university -Integrate everyday life. In the following, I have divided more detailed information and…
With the intention of learning English, I decided on this semester abroad and made exactly the right choice. I recommend it to everyone and would do it again in a heartbeat. I’ve gained a lot of new experiences and made friends with people from all over the world. I really enjoyed the time on campus, in my multicultural dorm and in the small Canadian town in the middle of the forest between moose and bears. I am still in contact…
Application process and general organizational matters First of all: yes, all the organizational stuff to organize the semester abroad is an extremely exhausting, sometimes nerve-wracking and incredibly time-consuming mix of towers of documents, numerous phone calls with various institutions and people, mountains of emails and countless errands. But with the longed-for goal of a great semester in Canada, it’s all doable, somehow. And at the end of the day, you’re proud to have managed everything well. So: Always keep the…
Application process The application process at the SMU is relatively simple: You compile a list of the courses that are suitable for you online and email this list with the associated prerequisites to the SMU to check whether you are admitted to the corresponding courses. For me this went relatively smoothly: Of course, it is difficult to assess from Canada what you have learned here in Germany, so in case of doubt you are more likely to be admitted. Then…
The University I chose Kwantlen Polytechnic University because a fellow student had told me about it and I wanted a university with a campus, but for which you could still live in the city center. The KPU was perfect for that. When you apply, you have to specify your preferred courses. It takes a while to find your way around the university’s website and later on the internet portals, but the offer and the possibilities are worth it. The university’s…
Application After I made the decision to do a semester abroad at very short notice, I quickly chose Canada and, due to its good location and good ratings, finally Brock University or BU. At StudiVZ, I had made contact with former exchange students at Brock before my application and their positive experiences also convinced me! Finally I had MicroEDU send me the application documents and off I went! The application is not particularly difficult in itself, a short letter of…
The SMU is very small compared to many German universities and so I was able to find my way around quickly. You can reach all destinations on campus in a few meters. Most of the time you don’t even have to leave the building because everyone is connected. Only the student pub, a few administrative facilities and the sports complex with a free fitness center can only be reached with fresh air. Accommodation I stayed in a senior suite at…
