Students have the opportunity to study in with French Canadian students at the Université du Québec à Montréal.
Montréal, population 3,360,000, is framed by Mont Royal and the St. Lawrence River. What was initially a simple missionary village, three and a half centuries later, has burgeoned into the world's largest inland port, the home of Canada's first banks and trading companies, the world's second-largest French-speaking city, and a metropolis of international repute. Given its prime location - only 37 miles (60 km) from the U.S. border - Montréal is an increasingly important hub of North American trade.
Montréal is a bilingual, mulitcultural society, and although its French influence is the focus of much controversy within Canada, it's this very flavor that's attractive to visitors. Montréal is a city renowned for its vibrant nightlife, love of sports, world-class museums, orchestras, shopping and year-round festivals. It is easy to get most everywhere on the metro and by foot.
