TCF or TEF Canada in Houston
Until mid-October, the Alliance published its TCF sessions on its TCF page — one every Wednesday, ten seats each, registration closing three days before, $400. On October 26, 2026, that page described the four TCF versions (tout public, Canada, Québec, IRN) but listed no date and no fee: write to exams@alliancehouston.org, or call 713-526-1121, to ask when TCF Canada sessions resume. Whatever you book, «Exam registrations are non-refundable for any reason».
The Alliance's TEF Canada page, on the other hand, was selling sessions: $380, on Mondays and Fridays, from October 30 to December 7, 2026 and from January 8 to 18, 2027, with 1 to 10 seats left. IRCC accepts the TEF Canada like the TCF Canada, with its own conversion to CLB levels (TCF vs TEF Canada). For the TCF Canada itself, the other U.S. centers and their fees are on our USA page; Pluma Academy in Denver listed sessions on most weekdays until March 2027.

It reproduces the official list of test centers approved by France Éducation international (FEI), read on October 26, 2026: name, address, phone, generic email and website as FEI publishes them; where the listed website no longer works or has moved, we give the one we opened that day. “Computer-based”: FEI lists the center as offering computer sessions; “paper-based”: FEI lists no computer sessions. The “TCF Canada” badges come from our check of each center’s website on October 26, 2026. An organization that is not on this list is not approved.
