College and University Pathway Programs

Prepare yourself for a Canadian college or university and improve your English skills to meet post secondary language requirements.  You will learn the skills needed to succeed in degree and college level courses and receive a Conditional Letter of Acceptance to respected colleges and universities.

The Pathway Programs provide:

• Monitoring of academic performance and on-going academic counseling
• Information sessions by select colleges for students.
• A bridge program with Booth University College for students to study English before their Fall term begins

Pathway Program requirements:

• Students must indicate that they are pathway on their application and the college they are intending to attend.
• Students must complete a minimum of 10 weeks in the level required to meet the college level requirement.
• Students must achieve the minimum required passing mark to meet the college level requirement (including marks from weekly tests, attendance, participation, homework, and presentations)
• If students test into a lower level than the one they require for the pathway, they must complete 10 weeks of the lower level and then the 10 weeks in the level required to complete the Pathway program. Please note that this means students could spend 10 – 30 or more weeks depending on their English level when they begin. Please account for your time at Heartland accordingly.
