All Secondary V students can apply to Marianopolis, regardless of language or which high school they are attending. 

Students who are eligible for English-language education in Quebec but who do not have their certificate of eligibility from the Quebec government should apply for one before June 2023. Information on how to apply for the certificate of eligibility can be found here. However, students applying to college for Fall 2023 will not have to submit a copy of their certificate. Colleges will be able to validate each applicant’s eligibility directly with their high school or school board.

In order to receive their DEC (Diplôme d’études collégiales), students must pass a language exit exam. Students with a certificate of eligibility for English-language instruction will be required to pass the English Exit Exam. Students without a certificate of eligibility will be required to pass the French Exit Exam (Épreuve uniforme de français). These students will be offered a sequence of three courses designed to prepare them for the French Exit Exam. These three course will be integrated into their academic program and will not result in an additional course load.

Applicants should choose the college that best fits their needs in terms of size, program of study, atmosphere, etc. However, it should be noted that each year, Marianopolis graduates occupy more spots in several competitive university programs than all other Montreal colleges combined.

Attend open houses, sit in on classes, visit college web sites, meet with your Guidance Counsellor, and read our Viewbook for information about prerequisite courses for each program offered at Marianopolis.
No, it will most likely be higher. The R-score is calculated using your class marks in relation to both the marks of the other students taking the class at the college, and the average strength of all your group’s secondary grades. If a college has higher admission standards, then, all other things being equal, its students will have higher R-scores. This fact contributes to the overwhelmingly successful placement rate of Marianopolis graduates in the universities of their choice.
Limited places are available for Winter admission for students who attended a Québec secondary school. However, there are no admissions to Arts and Sciences, Liberal Arts and Music (including double DECs).
Transfers after one semester may require the student to take summer courses. Transfers made after a full year of study will most likely require an extra semester of study.
While the most current mark has the most weight, both marks are considered by the admissions committee.

Yes, they will be considered if they have a minimum of 2 semesters or at least 50% of their course requirements left to complete. Transfer students must apply by the same application deadlines as first-year students, whether for the Fall or Winter semester.

The overall average of Secondary IV and V courses is taken and a separate average of Secondary IV and V Math and Science courses is computed.

Students whose English Placement Test results indicate a need for the development of their English skills may be placed in a Preparatory English (mise à niveau or success activity) course. For non-Science students whose grade in Math is less than 75%, the College will recommend a non-credit Math course for the fall session, if appropriate to the course of study.

On average, there are about 2,000 students who attend Marianopolis.
Yes, after acceptance. The test is administered as a means of identifying students who may need extra help in English writing. Additional information about who should write the English placement test will be included in the acceptance admission package.
Each year, we admit on average 3 out of 4 applicants. If you are not admitted to your first choice program, you will be immediately considered for admission to your second choice program.

Yes, all credited Secondary IV and V high school courses (Math, Science Technology Environment and Science Technology) are included in your overall grade average when reviewing applications to College program options, even programs that do not offer Math or Science courses.

Yes. The Admissions Office will check final grades in July to verify that prerequisite courses have been successfully completed and that the requirements for the Secondary School Diploma have been met. Students who fail Diploma and/or program entrance requirements will have their admission to the College withdrawn or modified.
The “summary” column is calculated. If there is no “summary” column, then the term marks are used in the admissions average.

Mid-March and into April. You can check the status of your application online as of March 11. Simply go to the Omnivox online portal and look under “Consult the status of my application.” If your file has been evaluated, you will see the decision. If it has not yet been evaluated, it will say “in progress”. Keep checking the Omnivox portal, and if you're accepted, don't forget to confirm your attendance in order to reserve your spot.

No. Applications from students attending public and private schools are considered equally.
Yes, all credited courses are considered and included in the overall average at the time of admissions.
Graduates from Marianopolis College may apply to any university outside Québec. Normally, they will apply to the second year of a university program and may be granted credit for up to one year of university studies, depending on the courses they have taken and the grades they have obtained.
