Program details
Overview
Societies in Motion (300.A1) is one profile within the Human Sciences DEC at Campus Notre-Dame-de-Foy, alongside the college's Police and Security and Sports profiles. It is a pre-university program delivered over four sessions that centres on social change and civic engagement, examining local and global social, environmental, educational, cultural and historical issues through field visits, volunteer projects and debate rather than lecture-only instruction. The profile suits students who are curious and engaged, want to see abstract social concepts play out in real settings, and are drawn to active, discussion-based learning. It follows the college's general secondary-level admission requirements, with fall-only intake and no enrollment cap; international candidates are eligible. The profile prepares graduates for university programs in fields such as sociology, social work, psychology, political science, education, geography, history and law.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to the Sciences humaines DEC, Societes en mouvement profile, at Campus Notre-Dame-de-Foy requires a Quebec Diploma of Secondary Studies (DES) or its recognized equivalent, plus Secondary 4 Mathematiques CST (Culture, societe et technique) as the programme's stated course prerequisite. The programme's admission-conditions page does not publish a minimum grade or average for this prerequisite and does not set out an English or French language-proficiency test; French is the language of instruction. No interview, portfolio, work-experience requirement, or other screening step is described for this programme. Admission is offered for the fall (September) session only, according to the programme's information sheet.
Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply directly to Campus Notre-Dame-de-Foy rather than through a regional admission service: for September 2027 entry, admission rounds close 1 March, 1 May, 1 June and 1 August 2027, after which late requests are still accepted case-by-case, subject to space, until the end of the first week of classes; a few contingented programmes such as Police Technology can close earlier once seats fill. International applicants are admitted for the Fall intake only, with applications due by 15 February 2027 for most countries and by 30 April 2027 for French nationals; no winter intake is offered internationally, and CNDF publishes no distinct domestic winter-round dates beyond noting winter admission exists. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
