Nursing at Cégep de Rosemont in Montreal: DEC program, SRAM application and OIIQ licensing
Cégep de Rosemont is a public college in Montreal. Nursing appears among its technical programs in the “Santé et sciences” area, and it is a route toward practising as a nurse in Québec.
What the school offers (nursing)
- Soins infirmiers: a technical program leading to a Diplôme d’études collégiales (DEC). Inforoute FPT lists it under program code 180.A0, about 36 months long, with Rosemont among the colleges offering it. Program versions can change, so confirm the current code and length with the college.
- DEC-BAC agreements: Rosemont’s program page says students can benefit from DEC-BAC agreements to finish university more quickly. The page excerpt we could read does not name the partner universities, so ask the college which ones apply.
- International students: Rosemont lists the nursing program among those open to international students.
- Prerequisites listed by Inforoute FPT: Secondary 4 Science et technologie de l’environnement (or Science et environnement) and Secondary 5 chemistry.
Becoming licensed after graduating
In Québec, nurses are licensed by the Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers du Québec (OIIQ). Its student-pathway section covers the licence, the professional exam and the candidate status (CEPI). Check the OIIQ for current requirements; this page is only a pointer. Practical nurses (infirmières auxiliaires) are regulated by a different order, the OIIAQ, and follow a different program.
How to apply
Applications to Rosemont go through SRAM (Service régional d’admission du Montréal métropolitain), which receives applications for 32 public colleges and takes them through its online admission portal. SRAM’s homepage states that regular admissions for the winter 2027 session open on 15 September 2026; other sessions have their own dates, so read SRAM’s procedures.
How Fiabita’s Study Lab can help students here
Study Lab can turn your own Rosemont notes into quizzes and flashcards in French or English, which helps if you study in French but will meet English-language clinical resources later. Use it to rehearse pharmacology, assessment and documentation before labs and internships.
