Programme selection and conditional assessment

uqtr-6717; each named applicant category retains its separate selection branch

  • CONTINGENTEMENT ET CAPACITÉS D'ACCUEIL Ce programme est contingenté à 45 places. Un maximum de 10 places est réservé aux titulaires d’un DEC en techniques de diététique (ou en voie de l'obtenir). MODALITÉS DE SÉLECTION DES CANDIDATURES La capacité d'accueil est répartie entre les catégories suivantes. Pour les candidatures de niveau collégial : toute personne qui est titulaire d'un DEC admissible (ou en voie de l'obtenir) ou qui est titulaire d'un diplôme jugé équivalent. L’évaluation de l'excellence du dossier scolaire de niveau collégial est établie en tenant compte de la cote de rendement au collégial. Pour les candidatures de niveau universitaire : toute personne titulaire d'un DEC admissible ou qui atteste d'une formation équivalente ET qui a suivi au moins 12 crédits universitaires à la date limite fixée pour le dépôt de la demande d'admission. L’évaluation de l'excellence du dossier scolaire de niveau universitaire est établie en tenant compte de l'importance relative du dossier universitaire par rapport au dossier du collégial. L’importance relative est obtenue en multipliant par 2% le nombre de crédits de cours qui ont été suivis à l’université. Ainsi, lorsque vous avez réussi 50 crédits universitaires et plus, 100% de votre dossier scolaire de niveau universitaire sera considéré; les résultats obtenus au collégial n’entrent plus dans l’évaluation de votre rendement scolaire global. Sélection des candidatures La sélection des candidatures, tant au niveau collégial qu’universitaire, repose sur l’excellence du dossier scolaire et sur le résultat obtenu à l’entrevue, conformément à la pondération suivante : Dossier scolaire : 70% Entrevue de motivation: 30% REMARQUES Advenant que vos cours collégiaux préalables aient été complétés il y a plus de 8 ans, le Comité d'admission révisera votre dossier pour s'assurer que vous avez conservé les connaissances scientifiques de base suffisantes pour entreprendre vos études. La vérification des antécédents judiciaires est obligatoire pour toute personne étudiante qui désire œuvrer au sein d’un établissement de santé, de services sociaux et d’enseignement, y compris la personne qui effectue un stage en milieu d’intervention. Certains vaccins seront exigés pour toute personne étudiante qui désire œuvrer au sein d’un établissement de santé, de services sociaux, y compris la personne qui effectue un stage en milieu d’intervention.

General academic admission framework

Exact programme bases above control; no unpublished university/experience route is inferred

  • Chapter 4 requires the appropriate Québec DEC, an equivalent diploma, or equivalent training totaling at least 13 years of schooling. An integrated DEC-BAC can admit during college under its institutional protocol.
  • A person without DEC/equivalent can be assessed for sufficient preparation only under the knowledge, skills, schooling/experience and evaluation conditions published for the chosen programme. Prior university courses/credentials qualify according to the nature and number stated by that programme; no previous bachelor is universally required.
  • In non-quota programmes, Article 60 permits specified conditional routes for at most one unfinished college course with a justified request; missing programme prerequisites equivalent to at most 9 university credits completed within three terms; or prescribed preparation/upgrading up to 30 credits. A programme may expressly prohibit conditional admission. The Registrar decides the exact admission and term.
UQTR · undergraduate regulations, Chapter 4, effective 6 June 2025
French: Quebec DEC basis

Applicants admitted on a Quebec DEC basis

  • Pass the college uniform French examination (EUF). The Registrar assigns TIFEQ when the uniform examination was taken in English; its published passing mark is 60%.
  • Article 42 requires a DEC entrant unable to prove EUF success to take TIFEQ by the first week of the first term, or pass prescribed French upgrading within 12 months from that term. This is a language condition, not a high-school admission average.
UQTR Registrar: French tests by applicant category
French: Quebec adult basis

Quebec applicants admitted using adult experience or prior schooling

  • The Registrar lists TIFEQ or successful FRA1013/FRA1017. It publishes a 60% TIFEQ pass and an 11-month completion period for this adult category, followed by programme exclusion if unmet.
  • The admission letter must identify the assigned test. Article 42 separately describes TIFEI for entrants using a basis other than DEC or French baccalaureate; that broader wording must not silently replace the Registrar’s adult-category instructions.
UQTR Registrar: French tests by applicant category
French baccalaureate: exemption wording differs

Applicants relying on a French baccalaureate

  • Article 42 exempts an entrant admitted on a French baccalaureate from TIFEI. The Registrar instead describes French nationals holding that qualification. These public sources differ in nationality scope; obtain confirmation through the admission letter rather than infer a citizenship restriction or unconditional exemption.
UQTR undergraduate regulations, Article 42; effective 6 June 2025
French test already passed in Quebec

Quebec or foreign applicants with a passed test at another French-language Quebec university

  • The Registrar requests the official proof of a passed test at another French-language Quebec university. Supply that attestation to the Registrar; the quiz cannot establish acceptance of a particular document.
UQTR Registrar: French tests by applicant category
TIFEI assignment and validity

Applicants whose admission letter assigns TIFEI

  • The Registrar says outside-Quebec bachelor’s applicants must satisfy UQTR’s recognised French-test requirements; wait for the admission letter to identify the test. It describes TIFEI as the institutional oral/written diagnostic.
  • EIF states that no other test replaces TIFEI, and TIFEI does not replace another test or serve Quebec immigration purposes. Its result validity is 18 months. No independent DELF/TCF waiver or universal test assignment is inferred.
UQTR EIF: TIFEI validity and test conditions
TIFEI: published result branches

Applicants assessed under EIF’s current TIFEI result table

  • All components at B2+ or above permit direct programme entry. B2+ thresholds are 70% in grammar, vocabulary and writing, and 75% in listening, reading and speaking.
  • If all components are B1 or lower, the table prescribes a 24-credit preparatory French year, passing every course and a cumulative average strictly above 2.0/4.3. B1 is 50% in each component.
  • The table’s intermediate branch describes one or more components above B1 but below B2+: pass one to four prescribed French courses within 11 months after the admission term starts, while taking at least one programme course each term. Other mixed-result combinations require EIF assessment; no missing branch is invented.
UQTR EIF: current TIFEI results and component thresholds
TIFEI: retake-policy conflict

Applicants seeking a repeat assessment

  • The Registrar says TIFEI can be taken only once. EIF’s policy revised 16 June 2026 instead provides conditional retakes for candidates evaluated from that revision, including approved technical incidents and specified result/timing branches. These current public instructions conflict.
  • Before a desired term’s registration cutoff, the stated intermediate-result branch permits a full or partial repeat at scheduled sessions. Once courses begin, the student follows the prescribed courses; an EIF adviser may later approve a repeat after reviewing the file. Candidates with all results at B1 or lower follow preparatory study before any adviser-approved repeat.
  • No retake is accepted for a test before March 2026. The March–15 June 2026 transition is not clearly resolved by the reviewed page. The latest result replaces the earlier one even if lower; after 18 months only a full repeat is available. EIF decides partial components and technical-incident approval.

Applicants assigned the relevant institutional test

  • Read the admission letter before paying for either test. The reviewed published test dates are in 2026; no Fall 2027 assessment date is inferred.

uqtr-6717; exact applicant and status branches retained in the linked official table

  • For studies at a Québec CEGEP, the page requests no transcript. For prior university studies, provide an official transcript issued by the institution, except for studies at UQTR. For studies outside Québec, provide final transcripts and diplomas from secondary, postsecondary and university studies.
  • A current CV is the standard experience-basis document only when the programme explicitly offers that basis. The programme may additionally require the attestations, portfolio or other materials stated in its exact conditions above.
  • Identity and immigration/residency documents use separate status branches in the linked programme page. Documents requested on arrival are distinct from initial application materials. No status, citizenship or fee-exemption eligibility is inferred.
