Requirements
Admission Requirements: Techniques d'éducation à l'enfance's own page states only that applicants must meet Cégep de Saint-Jérôme's general admission conditions, without listing an additional programme-specific course prerequisite; the general conditions require a Diplôme d'études secondaires. Admission runs Fall and Winter, with SRAM applications due March 1st or November 1st. Domestic applicants apply once, for one program at one SRAM college, through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (CAD 30 fee). International candidates apply through SRAM for the Fall session only (CAD 85 per request, decision in 4-6 weeks) and must supply a birth certificate, secondary transcripts and diplomas, and proof of French proficiency via a test from SRAM's list of accepted French-language tests (the college's international-admission page directs applicants to that list and does not itself state a specific test or score); admitted international students also need a CAQ, a study permit, and health insurance.
Application Details
Start Date:September and January
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRAM (Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain), paying a $30 per-application fee: Fall 2027 entry's equal-consideration date is 1 March 2027, with further rounds around late April and late May while seats remain, while Winter 2027 entry opened 15 September 2026 with a 1 November 2026 equal-consideration date and a late-November second round. Cégep de Saint-Jérôme's own international-admissions page describes a five-step process and a 4-6 week review period but sets no fixed opening or closing date, directing applicants to SRAM instead, whose system-wide window for Fall 2027 international entry runs 15 March 2026 to 14 March 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
