Requirements

International applicants must hold a secondary-school diploma or baccalaureate, or be in their final year of secondary school with proof of enrolment.

The page states no further course prerequisites, immunization requirement, GPA or language-test scores for this diploma; instruction is in French.
Application Details
Start Date:Starts in autumn (September) — La Cité lists no other intake for this programme.
Application Deadline:No fixed cut-off published for this programme. La Cité classes it as a regular (non-quota) programme, which means it keeps taking applications while places remain and makes an offer once the file is complete. Domestic applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for Fall 2027 entry the online application opened on 26 September 2026, colleges may start sending offers from 1 November 2026, and 1 February 2027 is the equal-consideration date. Many programmes carry on accepting applicants after that date on a first-come basis until they fill or open a waiting list, so check the college's programme-availability table before you apply. International applicants: this programme is not on La Cite's programme-availability table for international candidates, read 6 September 2026 - the college's complete list of the programmes international students may be admitted to - so it is not open to international applicants. Choose a programme that table lists before paying the non-refundable CAD 350 international application fee.
