Questions about sitting the CELPIP here
Where can I take the CELPIP in Montréal?
At ALC Montreal (3565 Rue Berri), Concordia University (1250 Guy Street), Herzing College Montreal (1616 Boulevard René-Lévesque Ouest), ILSC Montreal (550 Sherbrooke St W) and Yukon Consultants - Montreal (6000 Chem. de la Côte-des-Neiges). All are official CELPIP centres.
Which Montréal centre has the earliest available date?
Availability changes constantly and is not published in advance, so check each centre's dates directly — the links are on the cards above. Centres in large cities run more sittings but also fill fastest.
Can I register at a CELPIP test centre?
No. CELPIP test centres do not process registrations at all — every booking goes through the official CELPIP website. The centre is only the venue.
What is the difference between CELPIP-General and CELPIP-General LS?
CELPIP-General tests listening, reading, writing and speaking and takes about three hours; it is accepted for permanent residence, visas, professional designation and employment. CELPIP-General LS tests listening and speaking only, takes about an hour, and is accepted for Canadian citizenship.
Which CELPIP centre should I choose?
Any official centre delivers the same computer-based test and the same result, so choose on date availability and travel. In big cities the venues are often within a few kilometres of each other, and one will usually have a seat when another is sold out.
How soon do I get CELPIP results?
Results are normally posted to your online account within four to five business days of the sitting — considerably faster than the French exams.
