jerkstore Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Do they intake 250 French students and 250 English? Do they require you to prove that you speak French during application somehow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Do they intake 250 French students and 250 English? Do they require you to prove that you speak French during application somehow? Are you implying they take 500 students per year? lol btw, where are you getting 250 from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerkstore Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Are you implying they take 500 students per year? lol btw, where are you getting 250 from? I saw a page with the number of seats for each program, it lists Ottawa twice - one in french and one in English and each had (roughly) 250. Yeah I didn't think accommodated more than twice the next school. edit: 150 each http://www.ouac.on.ca/docs/omsas/rc_omsas_e.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerkstore Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Prerequisites (one full credit required for each) One of Humanities/Social Sciences/Languages; two Life Sciences ^^ Does this mean two years of Life Sciences or two semesters?

One full credits means 2 semesters. So yea 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legion Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Which courses at York constitute Life Science? I think each University has its own description of what courses are considered life science. You should check each individually to make sure. But in general, biology, anatomy, psychology, biochemistry and etc. Kinesiology also fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medman35 Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Ottawa takes 116 English and 48 French, making up 164 seats. I'm guessing the interview would be in French and I believe there are certain requirements as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerkstore Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Well I'm planning to learn French so perhaps that will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why there is any doubt on this subject at all. The interview is conducted entirely in French, unless you happen to indicate you are bilingual - in that case, you will be briefly tested for your verbal proficiency in English. As I understand it from a couple of friends who are in the French stream, they want you to speak French pretty fluently (i.e. you should be a native speaker or have been speaking the language for quite some time).

Ditto, The French stream is for those who are completely confident in French and generally speak it easily on a regular basis. If you are first and foremost an Anglo-phone but capable of speaking in French as a second language I suggest applying to the English stream and state that you are bilingual. In this case, from what I understand, your interview will be predominately in English with a few sections in French. Good luck, ABS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
