Other requirements

General requirements

Students are placed into an EAP Semester (level) by language skill level using standard English language test scores.

To avoid delays or disappointment, the College strongly encourage students to obtain their EAP placement level early in the decision-making and application process and before arrival in Canada. 

Students can take a placement test at Mohawk College, or they can provide official test scores:

  • Scores must not be more than one year old.
  • Students may submit no more than two (2) approved English assessments per semester for placement in EAP. The same type of assessment may be submitted only one time.
  • If a student’s skill scores are very widely distributed or do not include a speaking score, an EAP professor will interview the student to refine placement.
  • The College reserves the right to re-test any student whose in-person skills differ significantly from reported test scores.

Student insurance

Make sure to cover your health, travel, and stay while studying abroad. Even global coverages can miss important items, so make sure your student insurance ticks all the following:

  • Additional medical costs (i.e. dental)
  • Repatriation, if something happens to you or your family
  • Liability
  • Home contents and baggage
  • Accidents
  • Legal aid

We partnered with Aon to provide you with the best affordable student insurance, for a carefree experience away from home.
