About the university
Cégep de Saint-Laurent is a public French-language CEGEP in Montreal. It offers two-year pre-university DECs, such as Sciences humaines, and three-year technical DECs, such as Environnement, hygiène et sécurité au travail, with paid work-study (ATE) placements. It has an international office and a section for international applicants, and admission goes through SRAM.
The college's pages that we could open do not publish international tuition, so no courses with fees are listed here. Contact the international office (international@cegepsl.qc.ca) for the programmes open to you and their fees.
