Registration for the DEC program
Acceptance in the program is contingent on meeting college admission requirements and passing the final audition (see Audition registration process). The candidates are informed in writing of the jury’s final decision within two weeks of the final audition, that is to say by mid- April.
Before you do anything
Since the final audition is held after the first round of applications, we strongly recommend that all applicants also register in another Cégep program through the Service régional d’admission of their choice before March 1st so that their academic progress is not delayed in the event they are not accepted into LADMMI’s program. It is very important not to indicate “561.BB” as the first choice in the first round. That way, those who are not accepted by LADMMI will still be able to register in another program.
If you are accepted into the program
In mid-April, applicants will receive a letter of acceptance or refusal into the program. Those admitted into the program will receive detailed information on how to register.
Registration for the ACE program
Applicants must register with LADMMI in accordance with all applicable policies and rules. They must also pay tuition fees of $3,700 and auxiliary fees of $250 for each session. Registration is limited to two students per year.
Registration for the Mise à niveau program
Certain talented candidates who do not presently possess the standards and criteria to be accepted directly into the DEC program will be invited to register in the Mise à niveau program.
The Mise à niveau student must register in the DEC Danse-interprétation (contemporain) 561.BB at the cégep du Vieux Montréal. This student will be eligible to register in the regular DEC program the following scholastic year under the following conditions: the Mise à niveau student must pass all the courses taken during the two sessions as well as a final evaluation activity which takes place before an evaluation committee at the end of the second session.
As this specialized training is not financed by the Ministère de l’Éducation, du Loisir et du Sport du Québec, there is an additional scholastic fee of $1,550 (tax included) for the entire academic year. This fee is payable to LADMMI , l’école de danse contemporaine.
Foreign students (DEC et AEC)
Foreign students must provide a copy of their student visa as well as a copy of their Québec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) for studies. In addition they must also provide proof that they have a valid medical and hospitalisation insurance policy applicable to Canada or a reciprocal agreement in terms of health and social security from their country of origin.
Welcome international applicants!
Every year, LADMMI welcomes applicants from various countries. Following students’ acceptance into the program (DEC or AEC), we will assist them with admission applications, student visas and the Certificat d’acceptation du Québec (CAQ) for studies. All foreign students must acquire the health and hospitalization insurance of the Cégep du Vieux Montréal (CVM) or provide proof that they are covered by a health and income security reciprocal agreement. Do you have questions? Please contact the CVM’s academic support department at: registraire@cvm.qc.ca.
Registration for Summer School
Every year, throughout the three-year program, all students must enrol in LADMMI’s Summer School and pay the corresponding registration fees. Summer School is an invaluable way for students to learn new approaches to dance in an enriching, stimulating environment. Given the demands and intensity of the full time program, the Summer School is also designed to maintain the students’ physical form throughout summer.
