Requirements

Admission Requirements: The programme page states only that applicants must satisfy Cegep de Drummondville's general collegial admission conditions, with selection based on an audition rather than published grade thresholds: "la selection se fait sur la base d'une audition," and weaknesses identified during the audition may require remedial coursework. Per the institution's own admission requirements, the general conditions mean holding a Diplome d'etudes secondaires (DES); a DEP plus completed Secondary 5 language of instruction, Secondary 5 second language and Secondary 4 mathematics; or being no more than 6 units short of the DES via Tremplin DEC. No language-test score or portfolio is published. The programme is non-contingente, admitting for both Fall and Winter intakes, with a standard duration of 2 years.

Application Details

Start Date: September and January

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM): for Fall 2027 entry, round one closes 1 March 2027, round two 22 April 2027, and round three 27 May 2027; Winter 2027 entry is already open, with round one closing 1 November 2026 and round two closing 25-26 November 2026 (late admission runs to 12 January 2027). International applicants follow a separate SRAM timeline: Fall 2027 applications run from 15 March 2026 to 14 March 2027, and Winter 2028 applications run from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027 (Winter 2027 international applications are already closed). Admission is not open-ended rolling, but SRAM runs successive rounds for as long as places remain, and international intake can close early without notice. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
