Burnaby, just east of Vancouver, is one of Metro Vancouver's largest cities, known for the Simon Fraser University campus on Burnaby Mountain and the Metrotown shopping area. Linked directly to Vancouver by SkyTrain, it offers a calmer life.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Burnaby. Programs at Simon Fraser University and language schools in Vancouver are among the options.
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.
Working on a visitor visa is prohibited. Students enrolled only in English or French language courses generally have no right to work off campus even with a study permit; work rights come with college and university programs.
