Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Alberta. Language schools in Calgary and Edmonton and programs at the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary are among the options in the province.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short summer course, 3-6 months for fluent communication and usually 6-12 months for a university pathway. Programs that require a student visa are usually long-term.
Fees vary from school to school, and university-based language programs and private language schools can sit in different price ranges. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
Language schools accept students all year round. From June to August, junior programs fill classes and accommodation books up early, while autumn and winter are quieter.
Your visa type depends on the length of your course: a visitor visa for up to 6 months and a study permit for longer programs. NGGlobal helps you choose the right visa and prepare your documents.
