Program details
Overview
Arts visuels (510.A0) is a pre-university Diploma of College Studies (DEC) at Cégep de Sept-Îles that develops technical, technological, and computer-based skills applied to visual art-making. The two-year program covers art history from its origins to the present, and builds students' capacity for artistic expression, creative imagination, and autonomous production, culminating in independent studio work. Delivery follows a standard classroom-and-studio structure at the college's single campus, with no alternance or internship component described. Admission requires a secondary school diploma along with the college's general admission conditions. The DEC is positioned as a pathway into more than thirty university-level fields connected to the visual arts, including animation, graphic design, film, sculpture, photography, art history, art education, and visual communication. It suits students who want to explore a range of artistic disciplines before committing to a specific university program, and who bring imagination, openness to experimentation, creative drive, and the self-direction needed for independent studio work.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Cegep de Sept-Iles states only the Diplome d'etudes secondaires (DES) on the Arts visuels (Visual Arts) program page and refers applicants to the college's general admission conditions for the rest: the language of instruction (French) at Secondary 5, a second language (English) at Secondary 5, mathematics and science at Secondary 4, and history and citizenship education at Secondary 4, or, for a Diplome d'etudes professionnelles (DEP) holder, Secondary 5 French, Secondary 5 second language and Secondary 4 mathematics. The program page publishes no additional prerequisite courses, minimum average, portfolio submission, interview, or English-language test score; instruction and admission are conducted in French.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRACQ (Service régional d'admission au collégial de Québec) for programmes starting in 2027: the Fall 2027 intake has a first-round deadline of 1 March 2027, with further rounds on 1 May, 1 June and 1 August 2027 filling remaining seats; the Winter 2027 intake closes its first round on 1 November 2026, then 1 December 2026 and 2 January 2027. International applicants outside France apply through SRACQ from 1 September 2026 and must complete their file by 1 February 2027 for Fall 2027 entry, after which no international candidate can be admitted; Winter entry is offered only to French citizens, who may apply until 1 May 2027 for Fall or between 15 May and 15 October 2027 for Winter 2028. Admission is not indefinitely rolling: each round carries a firm cut-off, though later rounds absorb whatever seats remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
