Pre-university programs comprise four semesters (two years). All programs include two components - general education courses and program-specific courses.

The general education component is divided into three blocks:

1. General education courses common to all programs, namely, three English (language of instruction) courses, one French (second language) course, two humanities/philosophy courses, and three physical education courses;
2. General education courses specific to the chosen program, namely, one English (language of instruction), one French (second language), and one humanities/philosophy course;
3. In most cases, two complementary courses, namely, courses outside the chosen program. (The Liberal Arts program is the only exception.)

The number of credits comprising the program-specific components varies from program to program. For more details, consult with an academic advisor by contacting Student Services.
