As a non-Francophone student,
you will apply for admission into
the undergraduate program of your
choice at Université de Moncton (Arts
Programs, Business, Education, Science,
etc.) as would a Francophone student.
During the first year of your bachelor’s
degree, concurrently with your other
courses, you will follow an integrated set
of four French language courses (two per
semester), specifically tailored for
Anglophones, and known as
Groupe-Pont or “Bridge Program”.
After the first year, once you’ve finished
the Groupe-Pont program, you will not
need any additional French language
courses, unless you choose to specialize
in Translation or Journalism (Information-
Communication). Your Groupe-Pont
courses will be credited as electives. As a
result, the time required to obtain your
bachelor’s degree at UdeM
(and become fully bilingual) is the same
as for Francophone students.
