Your English language preparation
If you do not meet the minimum English language requirements for entry to your desired program at FIC, you may wish to enrol in an intensive English language program at SFU. The English Language and Culture (ELC) programs will help you improve your English language skills before starting at FIC.
SFU English Language and Culture (ELC) program
The SFU ELC program is an intensely interactive learning experience in a university setting. It emphasizes the importance of improving your language skills and understanding the culture in which a language is used. Students will be able to continue learning independently outside the classroom, and will gain the confidence to use English in any setting.
Conducted at SFU's Vancouver campus, the ELC program offers a wide range of English language courses. FIC can arrange full-time English tuition at ELC if you need to improve your English skills before commencing your academic study at FIC.
Students need a minimum of IELTS 5.0 with no band below 4.5 or equivalent to be issued with a joint Letter of Offer for their program at FIC and ELC.
For more information, visit sfu.ca/elc and go to Our Programs & Courses.
Off-campus English as a Second Language (ESL) colleges
If you don't have an English test score, or if your IELTS score is lower than 4.5 when you apply to FIC, we can offer advice regarding specialist ESL colleges in Vancouver. These colleges offer intensive English language programs, and most have new intakes each month.
