Diploma in Hotel Management is a diploma in Hospitality Management programme offered by Cégep Limoilou in Québec, Canada. The programme runs for 3 years. Tuition for international students is CAD 15,150 per semester.
Hotel Management is a technical Diploma of College Studies (DEC technique, 430.A0) offered at Cegep Limoilou. The program covers the operation of a hotel establishment broadly, including customer-service standards and techniques for dining and lodging areas, and the technological, financial, administrative, and legal management of a property, as well as human-resource and materials management. Students learn to run an establishment profitably while maintaining customer satisfaction. The program includes a work-study (alternance travail-études) component with two paid internships totalling roughly six months of work experience, one of which may be completed elsewhere in Canada or abroad. A DEC-BAC bridging pathway is available with the Institut de tourisme et de l'hôtellerie (ITHQ), among other university partnership options. No specific secondary-school prerequisites beyond general admission requirements are listed. The program suits students who enjoy working directly with clients, want responsibility for managing activities and staff, are drawn to the hospitality, tourism, or food-service sectors, and are open to international work or study experiences. It prepares graduates for supervisory and management roles across hotel, tourism, and hospitality operations.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The programme page for Hotel Management (Gestion hôtelière, 430.A0) states no specific secondary-school course prerequisites beyond Cégep Limoilou's general DEC admission conditions. Applicants must hold a Quebec Diploma of Secondary Studies (DES) from the youth or adult sector, or a Diploma of Vocational Studies (DEP) completed with Secondary 4 Mathematics, Secondary 5 English and Secondary 5 French, or present training and experience judged equivalent by the college, or qualify through the work-experience route (training and experience judged satisfactory, with at least 24 consecutive months away from full-time study). Applicants missing no more than one of the three required subjects, or with fewer than six secondary units outstanding, may still apply and complete the missing coursework during their first college session. No language-proficiency test, portfolio, interview or other specific condition is listed for this programme.
Application Details
Start Date:September and January
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through SRACQ (Service regional d'admission au college de Quebec) at sracq.qc.ca: for the Fall 2027 (August) intake the college runs four admission rounds closing 1 March, 1 May, 1 June and 1 August 2027, each later round admitting only while seats remain, and for Winter 2027 (January) entry - offered on every DEC programme except Nursing - rounds close around 1 November, 1 December 2026 and early January 2027 (the site states only that round-3 course confirmation and fee payment are due 13 January 2027, not the application deadline itself, so an exact round-3 cut-off date cannot be quoted).

These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
