Program details

Overview

Sciences humaines - Découverte (300.45) is the exploratory profile of the pre-university Sciences humaines DEC at Collège Ahuntsic, listed under the SRAM code 300.M0. The page describes it as a four-session, weekday program intended for students who want to explore the breadth of the humanities and social sciences - fields such as psychology, sociology, economics, politics, history, and geography - before narrowing their focus, rather than committing immediately to a single specialized concentration. Admission requires a secondary-level mathematics prerequisite (CST 4th year or equivalent). Applicants apply through the SRAM system by selecting the general 300.M0 Sciences humaines program and then choosing the Découverte profile. As with other Sciences humaines profiles, it functions as a pre-university pathway preparing students for university programs across the social sciences, business, law, education, and related fields, while giving them broader exposure to different disciplines before they choose a university major. It suits students who are curious about human behaviour and society but are not yet certain which specific humanities or social-science field they want to pursue at university.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: The program's own page sets one prerequisite: CST mathematics from Secondary 4 (or Mathematiques 416). Applicants select 300.M0 Sciences humaines on the SRAM site and then choose the Decouverte profile. Beyond the mathematics course, admission follows College Ahuntsic's general regulation R-11: a Diplome d'etudes secondaires covering it, or an equivalent Diplome d'etudes professionnelles with the required upgrading courses, plus eligible citizenship or immigration status. Applicants whose Secondary 5 language of instruction was not French must pass the College's own French-language test. Admission is processed through SRAM's three-round system.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM): Collège Ahuntsic's own site confirms it follows SRAM's standard three-round system for Fall entry and two-round system for Winter entry, which for the current cycle puts the Fall 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 March 2027 and the Winter 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 November 2026 (applications opening 15 September 2026), with later rounds in late April, late May and late November while seats remain. International applicants apply through the same SRAM portal; SRAM's system-wide window for Fall 2027 international entry runs from 15 March 2026 to a firm closing date of 14 March 2027, with no winter international date published for the college. Admission is rolling round to round until each round's seats are filled. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
