Program details
Overview
This program is a pre-university Diplôme d'études collégiales (DEC) in Natural Sciences (code 200.B1) at Collège Laflèche. It covers mathematics — differential and integral calculus, linear algebra, vectors, and statistics — alongside sciences including general and organic chemistry, cellular biology and ecology, and physics topics such as mechanics, electricity, and waves, together with general-education courses in French, philosophy, and English. The college offers the program through several pathways: a regular two-year sequence, an extended three-year sequence with a lighter weekly course load, and two variants — Sport Plus Studies and Art Plus Studies — that adjust the schedule for competitive athletes and students pursuing dance or music. Students have access to laboratory work, an integration project, and a dedicated support initiative for those aiming at limited-enrollment university programs. The program suits students planning to continue into university studies in health sciences, pure or applied sciences, or engineering, and who have completed the required secondary-level mathematics, chemistry, and physics courses.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission follows Collège Laflèche's general CEGEP admission conditions, which require a Quebec Diploma of Secondary Studies (DES) or a recognized equivalent, as set out on the college's admission page. On top of that, the Natural Sciences (Sciences de la nature, 200.B1) program asks for three specific Secondary 5 prerequisite courses: Mathematics TS or SN (or the former code 536), Chemistry (or 534), and Physics (or 534). The program states no language-proficiency test requirement. Admission is not subject to a quota (aucun contingentement), so places are not awarded competitively above the stated prerequisites. Two enriched pathways attached to this program carry their own extra conditions: Sport-études applicants must be recommended by their sport federation, and Art-études applicants must be recommended following an audition at the Studio de danse Artium or be registered at the Conservatoire de musique de Trois-Rivières.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Collège Laflèche takes applications directly rather than through a regional admission service (SRAM, SRACQ or SRAS), though applicants may also apply elsewhere through those services in parallel. Fall 2026 admission is already closed; for Winter 2027 entry the published rounds close 1 November 2026 (decision by 11 November, registration by 25 November), 14 January 2027, and 15 January 2027 for the first week of classes (registration by 21 January 2027). The college has not yet posted Fall 2027 deadlines. No distinct international closing date is published: the $50 CAD application fee applies equally to Canadian and international applicants, and late Winter admission continues on a rolling basis through the first week of classes. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
