W: St. Louise College. This is Roger speaking, can I help you?
M: Good morning, I’d like some information about the college. My name is Michael Vaughn. I have a friend in Italy who’s interested in applying for a place at one of the colleges. There are one or two questions which she’d like me to ask you.
W: Go ahead.
M: Thanks. The first one is: What language is used for normal lessons?
W: Well, the main language of instruction in all the colleges is English. But some subjects are taught in French and some in Italian.
M: Right. Her next question is about fees. Is it expensive to go to one of the colleges?
W: Students’ parents don’t have to be rich, if that’s what you mean. There are scholarships for all colleges, but we do ask parents to help by paying what they can afford.
M: Good, she’ll be glad to hear that. Now she wants to know something about getting into a college. Does she have to get high marks in her exams?
W: Ah, yes, well, she will have to do well, but academic ability is not the only thing that’s important. We also look at personal qualities.
M: What sort of things do you mean?
W: Maturity, the ability to get on well with people from different countries, that sort of thing.
M: Of course. I understand what you mean. Her last question is about her other interests. Can she do painting and modern dancing, for example?
W: Yes, probably. It depends on the staff at the college she enters. Each college has its own special activities, such as theatre studies or environmental work, in which students can take part.
M: Good. I think that’s all. Thank you very much for your help.
W: You’re welcome. I hope your friend sends in an application.
M: I’m sure she will. Thanks again. Goodbye.
W: Goodbye.
