Résumé: Our study focuses on four academic training programs intended to support students in their development of academic writing and analyzes them with regard to students’ evaluations. We also investigated two factors identified as influencing primary literacies (parents' level of education and multilingualism) and a factor pointed out as more relevant for success at university (gender) to establish whether the latter has a role in the development of academic discourse. Our results show that entering academic discourse is a gradual process including various elements beyond the simple mastery of academic writing. The factors of Parents' level of education, Gender, and Multilingualism do not appear to be significant when entering university discourse.
