Program details

Overview

This Double DEC combines the pre-university Sciences humaines program with the pre-university Arts, lettres et communication program, which Cégep de Drummondville offers in a Langues profile, oriented toward language study, and a Multidisciplinaire profile spanning a broader range of arts, letters and communication courses; either can be combined with the social-science curriculum. The Sciences humaines side covers psychology, economics, history, geography and related disciplines, the usual preparation for university programs in the humanities, social sciences, law or business, while the Arts, lettres et communication side leads toward university studies in languages, communication, literature or the humanities depending on the profile selected. The combined program takes three years, a year longer than a single pre-university DEC, reflecting the extra coursework of two concurrent curricula, and admission depends on meeting the requirements of both individual programs. Completion results in two separate Diplômes d'études collégiales. It suits students wanting to pair social-science training with a strong language or arts-and-letters education.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This Double DEC's own page states three admission conditions: meet Cegep de Drummondville's general college admission conditions, present a school record with a grade above 70% in Secondary 5 French, and meet the particular requirements of the two chosen programmes. Sciences humaines's own page requires, for its general profile, Mathematics CST from Secondary 4 (or Mathematics 416), or for its mathematics-heavy profile, Mathematics TS/SN from Secondary 5 (or Mathematics 526). The Arts, lettres et communication (option Langues) page instead requires proficiency in English, without publishing a specific test or score, noting the programme's duration can be extended for applicants who lack it; both components are non contingente. Intake is in the Fall term.

Application Details

Start Date: Fall
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.
