History
Collège de Bois-de-Boulogne

The college traces its origins to the merger of several institutions which became public ones in 1967, when the Quebec system of CEGEPs was created.

Programs

The Collège Bois-de-Boulogne offers two types of programs: pre-university and technical. The pre-university programs, which take two years to complete, cover the subject matters which roughly correspond to the additional year of high school given elsewhere in Canada in preparation for a chosen field in university. The technical programs, which take three-years to complete, applies to students who wish to pursue a skill trade. In addition Continuing education and services to business are provided.

The Collège Bois-de-Boulogne is considered as one of the best public CEGEPs in the province of Quebec. One of the main reasons being that 50% of the school's students come from private secondary schools. Bois-de-Boulogne is one of the very few public CEGEPs that are considered comparable to Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf and Marianopolis College. 85% of the school's graduating students get accepted in the program of their choice. Bois-de-Boulogne also has one of the highest percentage of students to get accepted in top programs such as medicine, law, architecture, pharmacy, engineering, etc.

Facilities and features

The Collège occupies two buildings: le pavillon Saint-Paul, which was formerly the Collège Saint-Paul, and le pavillon Ignace-Bourget, which was formerly the Ignace-Bourget normal school.

gollark: > cooking, accounting (like bank balancing, budgeting, etc), things of that nature should be required classes, since so many people suck at themYou can't expect schools to be able to teach common sense and everything else you might need. People have to learn by themselves eventually.
