English Language Program
Student Life

The Student Life area oversees all aspects of The Homestay Program, Socio-Cultural Activities, the Language Partner Program, Student Health Insurance, Student ID and a variety of other every day concerns in the lives of our International Students in The Collegiate, Degree Studies or English as an Additional Language program.
Our Student Life Handbook covers areas of a student's life that are not related to the academics or the classroom.
At The University of Winnipeg, we understand that practicing English in everyday situations is important for the development of your English.
Opportunities to practice your English are organized through members of our Student Life staff. These opportunities include:
- Homestay (living with a Canadian family)
- Socio-Cultural activities
- Language Partner Program in which you may be matched with a volunteer from the local community (Full-time ELP students only)
