About the university

Cégep de Rivière-du-Loup is a small public CEGEP in Rivière-du-Loup, on the south shore of the St Lawrence in eastern Quebec. About a fifth of its 1,100 to 1,200 students are international. For 2027-28 it lists technical DECs in pharmacy, nursing, early childhood education, leisure management, business administration, computer science, interior design and graphic design, and pre-university DECs in arts, literature and communication and visual arts. All teaching is in French.

The college's 2026 budget table gives international tuition only as a range, CAD 15,150 to 23,480 a year depending on the field of study, so no courses with fees are listed here. Ask the college for your programme's fee before you apply.
