Domestic Ontario applicants need the OSSD or equivalent, or, at 19 or over, a pass on La Cité's mature-applicant test; Quebec applicants need the DES, and New Brunswick applicants the provincial DES, on the same mature-applicant basis. No international-applicant section is published for this co-op variant's page; students in the co-op stream must maintain their eligibility throughout and follow La Cité's general co-op conditions.
