The University Preparation Courses stream (UPC) is designed for International students who have already attained their high school diploma in their home countries. The UPC program prepares international students to meet the English level requirements necessary to enter Canadian universities. Students in this program will also take six pre-university courses that are necessary for entrance for the student’s particular program of interest at the university. TAIE offers a number of courses that can accommodate the students’ need and interests in regards to their program of choice.
