Program Agreement

This agreement applies to the French and English as Second Language Explore Programs offered at Glendon Campus, York University, for participants aged 19 and over. The purpose of this agreement is to foster a safe, inclusive, and enriching environment that supports cultural exchange, educational growth, and language acquisition. These programs are designed to offer an immersive experience that not only enhances language skills but also encourages self-exploration, personal growth, and a deeper understanding of diverse cultures.

We ask that all participants commit to engaging with these core aspects of the program. If your intention is not to embrace the opportunities for cultural learning, self-reflection, and educational development, we kindly request that you reconsider your enrollment. This experience is as much about personal discovery as it is about language learning, and your active participation in this journey is vital to creating a positive and meaningful experience for all.

As a reminder, the Glendon Explore program is designed to provide a comprehensive linguistic and cultural learning experience. Through ongoing efforts, the program will offer a variety of excursions, activities, and programming tailored to educational and linguistic objectives. Furthermore, all activities, programming, and excursions must be accessible to participants from diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds, in alignment with the program’s status as an Official Languages Program supported by a government bursary.

By agreeing to the conditions outlined below, you help contribute to a supportive and transformative learning environment for everyone involved. Any violation or failure to adhere to these conditions may result in a participant being sent home and excluded from completing the program.
