Table of Programs Offered and program Requirements
If you are an applicant from outside Quebec, please be advised that:
- Testing in specific program pre-requisites (English, French, Math, Science, Chemistry or Physics) may be required to assess the level of an applicant’s qualifications. Testing takes place at Dawson College in Montreal during early November for Winter Admissions. If testing is required, the Admissions Office will email applicants the details of test dates. Failing to attend a testing request will disqualify an applicant. Should you be unavailable for specific pre-requisite testing, you may wish to consider a program that has no specific pre-requisites.
