Program details
Overview
Histoire et civilisation, offered at Champlain College Saint-Lambert as 'Law and Civilization,' is a two-year pre-university DEC profile of the Sciences humaines (Social Science) program, offered here without the supplementary-mathematics option. The curriculum is interdisciplinary, drawing on law, history, philosophy, religion, art history, the social sciences and natural sciences to build critical-thinking and communication skills, alongside the English, French, humanities and physical education courses required of every DEC. Students also choose electives such as anthropology, sociology, psychology or film studies to round out the program. Saint-Lambert offers a parallel Law, Civilization and Mathematics option that adds calculus and linear algebra for students aiming at business or finance programs, but the general profile described here has no mathematics component. Admission requires a Quebec Secondary School Diploma or equivalent. The profile suits students interested in law, history and civilization who want a broad humanities foundation before specializing at university, preparing graduates for further study in fields such as law, political science, communications, and the arts and sciences more broadly.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: This programme page (Law and Civilization, offered with or without an additional Mathematics profile) requires a Quebec Secondary School Diploma or a level of education the college deems equivalent, plus Secondary IV Cultural, Social and Technical Mathematics 4 (563414 or 063414); the Mathematics profile additionally requires Mathematics TS 5 or SN 5. No programme-specific language test is stated; general Champlain College Saint-Lambert requirements apply, from the college's Admissions Information page: domestic applicants use the college's own Omnivox system rather than SRAM, with deadlines of March 1st for Fall (applications open January 15th) and November 1st for Winter. International applicants, or anyone whose mother tongue or prior schooling was not English, must submit TOEFL (minimum 75 Internet-based or 540 Paper-based) or IELTS (minimum 6.5 overall, or 6.0 overall with no component below 5.5), a Quebec-immigration equivalency for prior schooling, a CAQ, study permit and approved health insurance; certified diploma copies are due by August 1st.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Applications to Champlain College-Lennoxville go through the Service regional d'admission du Montreal metropolitain (SRAM). First-round deadlines for Fall 2027 entry are 1 March 2027 for Quebec and Canadian applicants and 15 March 2027 for international applicants; for Winter 2027 entry the first-round deadlines are 1 November 2026 domestically and 1 June 2026 for international applicants, the latter already past by this fetch date. Missing the first round is not final: SRAM opens second and third rounds with remaining seats, though spaces are very limited, and round-one decisions become available from 2 April. Admission therefore runs through successive SRAM rounds rather than a single hard cutoff, so later applicants are still considered while seats remain. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
