The program page shows “Unlimited admission capacity” and, in the Admission Requirements, “Minimum college performance rating (R score): 25.000”. No “Admission Statistics” block appears on the page: the “minimale” classification is based on the header wording (threshold shown as required), corroborated by the DIRO program page (“Minimum R score required: 25”). Applications and places not published.

Possible bridging options
Preparatory course General Chemistry (CHM 1963) Required
Required, as an out-of-program course, for persons admitted on the basis of the DEC in Sciences informatiques et mathématiques (200.C1 or 200.C0): the course must be completed during the first year of studies. Exemption possible if the equivalent college courses (General Chemistry and Chemistry of Solutions) have been completed.
If you're not eligible yet
- R score below the displayed threshold of 25.000
- Missing prerequisite courses (biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics depending on the DEC of origin)
Official pathways
Bridging courses (UdeM)
UdeM bridging program (with a DEC) allowing students to take the missing preparatory courses (biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics), then submit an application to the intended program.
Minor in Arts and Sciences (UdeM)
For a DEC holder who is missing prerequisites in only one or two subjects.
Prerequisite courses at a CEGEP
Take the missing courses at the college level, then submit a new application for the following fall.
Non-limited-enrolment program (unlimited admission capacity). Admission in the fall only: a refusal or incomplete prerequisites postpone entry to the following fall.
