Université de Montréal Adult Education Department
Your best chance at full French language immersion is on ‘the Mountain’ at Université de Montréal. Université de Montréal Adult Education Department has terrific programs that include night or weekend courses, courses in everything from beginners’ French to Québec culture to advanced courses in written French. This is a very proud French-language campus so people are not prone to making le switch so feared by French-language students. Many Americans and South Americans attend this program in summer as a kind of study vacation as it’s cheaper than flying to Europe.
