You can gain e-mail access, internet access, and general software access in several academic buildings and the library. I followed the Intensive French Program option at Laval University. Therefore, I can't speak for the format of a general university class. French for non-francophones is offered to students who want to study French through an intensive total immersion program. I was in intermediate level 4A and took grammar, phonetics, oral expression, oral comprehension, Quebec literature., and Quebec culture.
Classes vary depending upon the level.
The first week when you arrive there is a placement test to determine your level. There are also several outings planned to introduce you to Quebec City and give you a chance to meet the other students in the program. Believe me, it passes quickly. Again, depending upon your placement level, class format may vary. The format includes very little lecture by the professors.
