Télé-université, Université du Québec: the applicant's brief

6 findings
  1. The short answer

    Télé-université, Université du Québec is a public French-language distance learning university in Canada, and it suits students who want to study remotely at undergraduate or graduate level. It is especially relevant if you need full university study in French without attending classes in person.

  2. What you can study

    Université TÉLUQ offers programs in undergraduate and graduate studies. It is a distance learning university, and all of its courses and programs are delivered remotely across all three university cycles. The programme catalogue is still being compiled beyond those broad study levels.

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions channel and check the current entry requirements on its website. Because it is a French-language institution with remote study, the main practical points to confirm are the required academic documents, any language requirements, and the process for enrolling from outside Canada.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a tuition fee range here; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Living costs in Quebec will depend on where you live and how you study, even though the teaching itself is remote.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is French. Before applying, confirm whether your French is sufficient for study, how online courses are delivered, what documents are needed from your home country, and whether there are any time-zone or technical requirements for remote participation.

  6. How it compares

    Among Canada’s 156 universities, this is a public institution with a clear distance-learning focus rather than a conventional campus model. Its main distinction is that it delivers all courses and programs remotely at all three university cycles in French, which makes it a different option from most Canadian universities for students who need flexible study from abroad.
