For international students, a recognized French proficiency test may be required and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required (other English proficiency exams are also accepted by ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ).
- All candidates for admission must make arrangements to come to the Macdonald campus for an interview prior to admission to the program.
- Admission to this program is only in the Fall semester.
- We strongly encourage incoming students to acquire their driver’s permit (both for cars and farm equipment) before coming to Macdonald campus. This is first for safety reasons, given that students may work with farm equipment during the first semester. As well, most farmers require their employees and trainees (stagiaires) to drive and possess the appropriate driver’s license.
