Buy your winter coat at home! In Canada, they do not sell better winter clothes than in Austria, even if the temperature goes down to MINUS 30°C in Canada.

It is a very good choise in both academic and social life terms. There are a lot of people from everywhere and it is easy to get to know people. The student associacions takes good care of the coming students and arranges parties and trips.

Myself and everyone I know had an amazing time. There is so much to see and do both in Montreal and within reasonable travelling distance. Exchange students are really well catered for.

A very small university which will give you the opportunity to really improve your French. And next to the classes you have enough time to explore the city and the rest of the country. Even got the change to see NYC!

Go to NYC, Boston, Vancouver if you can. You will not learn much by spending long hours on and around the campus after classes. Visit and look constantly for new spots. for Speak english.
