The Centre linguistique du cégep de Jonquière is delighted to announce the expansion of its program to a new campus, at Collège Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption (CNDA). The CNDA is a renowned historic school, conveniently located in the heart of a small, lively Quebec town, Nicolet, just 15 minutes south of Trois-Rivières.
The CNDA is elegantly built on a magnificent estate bordered by the Nicolet River. In addition to offering an enchanting setting for a multitude of outdoor activities (vast shaded green spaces, kayaking, beach volleyball, basketball, soccer, swings, garden and campfire site), it is close to many essential amenities, such as pharmacies, hospitals, restaurants, banks, grocery stores, general stores, parks, and much more.
Furthermore, thanks to its access to the sports centre of the École nationale de police, the CNDA allows students to benefit from a weight room, gymnasiums as well as an indoor swimming pool at very advantageous rates. This unique geographic location provides a highly secure environment for students.
In addition, the CNDA is a warm and friendly place, where students have the opportunity to live in a community. Everything is located within the school itself: quarters, classrooms, cafeteria and activity rooms! We have shared quarters for 2 to 4 people, so choose your roommates!
