there is no need to provide a language proficiency certificate. For M.Sc., a minimum proficiency in french is required (please consult ulaval website).
I live in a foreign country. What procedure should I follow to come to your department at Laval University for a graduate program?
You should firstly contact the professor and he/she might offer you an acceptance. You can then apply to the university.
After receiving the university admission, you can proceed for CAQ and visa.
How much money do you think a graduate student needs to have to be able to live in Quebec city for each year?
$18,000 CAD would be enough for a single student, even though some graduate students find it possible to live with 15,000 CAD/year.
Quebec is not an expensive city! If you live in the dormitory its cost is approximately 400$/month.

Université Laval provides a $2,000 admission scholarship to all Canadian or international students who register for the first time in a full-time doctoral program in summer, fall, or winter. Consult
