Ontario, Canada's most populous province, is the centre of Canadian education, with Toronto and the capital Ottawa, Niagara Falls, the Great Lakes and dozens of college and university towns. It offers the widest range of options, from language schools to pathway programs.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Ontario. Language schools in cities such as Toronto, Ottawa and London, and programs at colleges such as Conestoga, Fleming, Lambton and Algonquin, are among the options in the province.
Short programs last 1-4 weeks, while long-term programs run from 12 weeks to a year. Most schools use a system of 8-12 levels, and on an intensive course you should allow about 4-8 weeks per level.
Language school fees in Ontario depend on course intensity, the type of school and the length of your booking. The weekly price falls for longer bookings, and extra discounts apply for early bookings and promotions. Applying through NGGlobal lets you compare the schools' current offers in one place.
Language schools do not require a diploma or any prior knowledge of the language. After you complete the enrolment form and pay the deposit, the school sends you a letter of acceptance; for programs longer than 6 months, the school must be a Designated Learning Institution (DLI).
If you plan to move on to a college or university, plan your language program around the September, January or May academic intakes. Allow at least 4 months for the visa process.
Turkish citizens need a visitor visa (TRV) to enter Canada. Language courses of up to 6 months can be taken on a visitor visa, while programs longer than 6 months require a study permit. Applications are made online and require biometrics (fingerprints and a photo).
If you plan language study as the first step towards a Canadian college or university, those programs can bring work rights within set hour limits and post-graduation work permit (PGWP) opportunities.
Homestay is the most common option in Ontario, and schools usually place students with families within easy reach of the school.
Living costs in Ontario are around the Canadian average, with rent lower than in Toronto or Vancouver.
The province's cities are linked by coach, train and domestic flights, and the big cities have extensive public transport.
Ontario has four distinct seasons: cold, snowy winters, hot, humid summers and colourful autumn leaves.
Direct flights from Istanbul to Toronto Pearson Airport (YYZ) take about 11 hours; the province's other cities are reached by coach, train and domestic flights.
Because Canada uses daylight saving time, the difference changes with the season: Ontario is 7 hours behind Turkey in summer and 8 hours behind in winter. When it is 18:00 in Turkey, it is 10:00 in Ontario in winter.
