Baccalauréat en nutrition
Published R score thresholds
| Threshold type | R score | Term | Applicant category | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Average of admitted applicants (benchmark) | 33.225 | Fall 2026 | CEGEP applicants (Quebec) | Source |
Average R score of admitted applicants (Admission Statistics block, as of July 9, 2026); max 38.069. NO minimum R score is published: the footnote of the block states that “the minimum R score is not presented, because the program participates in the motivation assessment pilot project (Profil global)” — there is therefore no published last admitted threshold for this program.
