This walkthrough is specifically intended for Quebec high school students applying to the Day Division fall session.

The SRAM (Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain) application module is used to apply to SRAM-affiliated CEGEPs. For English CEGEPs, this includes Vanier College, John Abbott College, Champlain College Lennoxville, and Heritage College.

When applying through SRAM, there are 3 rounds of applications. You get the choice of one CEGEP and one program at that chosen CEGEP per round.

If you are accepted into the program in the first round, you do not get to apply for round 2 or 3. Once you're admitted into a program, you cannot apply for future rounds.

• $30 application fee, paid once (you do not need to pay this fee for each round)
• Round 1 deadline: March 1, 11:59 pm
• If applying to rounds 2 or 3, consult the Table of Available Programs (also called Table of Available Places): https://admission.sram.qc.ca/regulier/places-disponibles/par-programme
• Round 2 deadline: TBA (usually April)
• Round 3 deadline: TBA (usually May)

You can apply through SRAM at this link: https://admission.sram.qc.ca/

---

1. SRAM will first present you with the menu below (you can switch from English to French, depending on your preference). Notice that in the bottom right corner, next to "Contact the cégeps", you can choose to fill out a Mock application (= simulate an application).

2. Click on "Apply for admission" at the very left. You'll be taken to this menu:

3. Select "Regular applicant" and create a new account (or login if you've already made one). Read the guidelines displayed to you ("Important guidelines") and once you're ready, proceed to step 2, "Choice of college and program".

4. Choose a college, then select a program. A third menu may pop up, asking you to choose a "Particularity" or a "Specialization"—you may wish to consult the CEGEP's viewbook for help. If you are applying to round 2 or 3, click on "View available programs" before making your choice.

Depending on your choices, specifications about the program pertaining to availability, precisions, and prerequisites may appear. Read the specifications carefully, especially if there are prerequisites, to verify that you qualify for admissions. Make sure to check the boxes signalling that you've read the precisions, and/or that you have or will have all the prerequisites. (You won't be able to proceed otherwise.)

Vanier College was simply selected as an example. You are free to choose whichever CEGEP to which you wish to apply (Vanier, John Abbott, Heritage, or Champlain Lennoxville).

5. Continue to step 3, "Identity". Select your birthplace (In Quebec, Elsewhere in Canada, or Outside Canada) under "Legal status in Canada". Then, if applicable (In Quebec/Elsewhere in Canada), select "Canadian" if you are a Canadian citizen, or select "Native" if you are First Nations.

• If you select "Elsewhere in Canada", specify your province of birth and your city of birth in the two menus that should pop up. Under "Legal Status", select "Canadian" if you are a Canadian citizen, or select "Native" if you are First Nations.
• If you select "Outside Canada", specify your country of birth and your city of birth in the two menus that should pop up. Select the corresponding legal status from "Canadian", "Permanent resident" (PR), "Refugee", or "Temporary resident" (study permit, work permit, etc.).
  • If you select "Permit to be obtained" (you do not have a temporary visa/permit granting you legal status in Canada), then you do not qualify as a regular applicant in SRAM's system. However, if this is the case for you, you can instead return to Step 3 on this page and select "International applicant".

(step 5 continued) Press "Continue" on "Personal information" and fill out your information (first name, last name, date of birth, gender, language spoken at home, native language, North-American phone number, permanent code).

Once you've completed that part of the form, click "Continue" on "Parents" and fill out your parents' information (first and last name of your parents).

Next, click "Continue" on "Contact information". You can search for your address or enter it manually.

Finally, press "Continue" to "Reminders and notifications". Depending on your preferences, you can ask to be notified by text, email, or simply not be notified at all if your application is incomplete. Once you've filled out this last section of the "Identity" form, click "Continue" in the bottom right corner of the webpage.

6. You should now be at step 4 on your SRAM application, "Academic background". Reminder that this application guide is for day division Quebec high school students (adolescents studying full-time in a Quebec high school).

• Select "Yes" for "...secondary school, youth sector?"
• Select "No" for "...secondary school in an adult education centre?" (this is asking if you are enrolled in Continuing Education)
• Select "No" for "...college (cégep)?" (this is asking if you are a transfer student who's already begun studies in CEGEP)

A section titled "Secondary school, youth sector" will appear beneath the form. Select or type the name of your school as instructed.

7. Continue to step 5, "Verify your information". Carefully look over the choices and information recorded by SRAM from the previous 3 steps ("Choice of college and program", "Identity", "Academic background"). Click "Update" next to a section if you'd like to modify or correct something there (this will take you back to that step of the application).

Once you are certain that everything is correct, read the terms and conditions (text in the black box: "I declare that the information provided in this application is accurate. I authorize…"). Lastly, click "Create an application".

8. A modal (pop-up) should appear, stating that your application for admission has been sent to SRAM. You can access your file, as indicated in the notification, by clicking on the "Status of my application" tab. Click "OK" when you're ready to dismiss the pop-up.

9. Check to see if you need to upload any documents. You can upload them directly to your file by clicking on the "Upload documents" tab and following the instructions that appear. SRAM accepts PDF or JPEG (JPG) file formats with a maximum file size of 3 MB.

Here is a checklist of documents for Quebec day division high school students:

• If you were born outside of Quebec: birth certificate
• If your school does not have an agreement with SRAM to transmit your grades: secondary V report card, possibly additional transcripts
• If your program so requires (check prerequisites/requirements!), a letter of intent
• If SRAM is missing a document from you, you should see, in your "Status of my application" tab, a box indicating a missing document and asking you to upload it. For example, it may say "Secondary V School Report Card - mandatory" and indicate that it was "Not received".

10. Now, you'll want to pay the application fees. Select the "Pay application fees" tab (below the "Status of my application" tab) and click "Pay now" to complete your mandatory and non-refundable payment of the $30 application fee. SRAM will redirect you to the Moneris online payment platform, where you'll fill out your information and complete the transaction.

Reminder: print out your SRAM transmission receipt! It's important to have proof of your completed application, and to take note of your reference/application number.

Other tabs

• Once you've completed your application, if the deadline hasn't yet passed, you can modify your choice of college and program in the "Change my choice" tab. Avoid making late changes!
• If you weren't admitted in round 1 or 2, you can click on the "Participate in another round" tab once admissions to round 2 or 3 have opened.
• The "Modify my contact information" tab allows you to update your email address, mailing address, phone number(s), and reminders and notifications selection.
• The "Important dates" tab lists important dates including deadlines, when admissions open for each round, and when admission answers will be available. You may also add certain dates to an online calendar (Outlook, Google Calendar, etc.).

And that's it! You've applied through SRAM's application module!

Next, you can go to Dawson Application Centre, Marianopolis College (Omnivox), or Champlain Regional College (Omnivox) to see how to apply to more CEGEPs. Or if you're unsure about something, see below.

5. Start with the first out of 6 steps, "Personal Information".

Fill out the "Identification" form carefully (family name, first name, sex, date of birth, have you previously studied in a Quebec high school or CEGEP, permanent code, mother tongue, language spoken at home). Ensure that the information you've provided is correct before proceeding.

Complete the "Legal Status" form carefully (country of birth, province/state of birth, city of birth, country of permanent residence, province of permanent residence, legal status in Canada, country of citizenship, country of mail address, principal occupation during the last 6 months).

6. Proceed to step 2, "Mailing Address", by clicking the "Next Page" button at the bottom of the page. Enter your contact and mailing information in the "Mailing Address" form (postal code, country, province, street number, street name, apartment number, city/town, PO box, phone numbers and extensions, email address). You must provide a valid email address so that Dawson College can send you important information. Dawson College does NOT recommend Hotmail or Live email addresses.

7. Press "Next Page" to proceed to step 3 and 4, "Academic Background" and "Academic Background - Details". Reminder that this application guide is for day division Quebec high school students (adolescents studying full-time in a Quebec high school).

In the "Secondary Studies - Youth Sector" box:

• Select "In Quebec" for "I am presently registered in a regular high school program (not adult education):"

Depending on your school, a box below the name of your school ("Name of your last school") will appear and indicate whether your school will provide your grades.

• "Grade report will be provided by your school" means that your school will transmit your grades to Dawson (no need to upload your report card).
• "You must upload your report card from (a school year) academic year and your report card for your in-progress Secondary V grades" means that your school will NOT transmit your grades, and that you must upload your report cards to the Application Centre later (after completing your application—more on this step when we get there)

9. Proceed to step 5, "Program Choice", by clicking "Next Page" at the bottom. Select your first-choice program by filling out the "Program Choice 1" form, then select your second-choice program by completing the "Program Choice 2" form.

You'll be asked to select a program type, program group, and program (name) for each choice. Consult the Table of Programs Offered and Program Requirements document found on Dawson's How to Apply (Fall) page as needed.

Remember to pay the application fee once you've completed all 6 steps (more on this later)—if your payment is not received before the prescribed date and time (deadline), your application won't be processed!

10. Finally, proceed to step 6, "Review and Confirm". Carefully review the summary of your application that's presented to you—use the "Previous Page" and "Next Page" buttons to return to any step and make corrections (if necessary).

11. After submitting, you'll be shown a note about an email confirmation that may look something like this:

Note: the image above was taken from Dawson's How to Apply (Fall 2021) guide. The file number displayed is not real.

1. To start an application, click "Submit an Application for Admission" at the bottom of the application module page.

2. Reminder that this walkthrough is intended for high school students in the day/youth sector who are applying to the Fall semester! The first part of the application is where you'll select your first and second choice programs. On page 1, under "Program of Studies", select the correct Fall semester for "Semester". The option should be "Fall [the year you're graduating]".

Two dropdown menus should pop up, one for your first choice program followed by another for your second choice program. Then, select the answers that apply to you for the two dropdowns concerning Sport-Études.

Under "Legal Status", specify your legal status (see this form to confirm whether you're considered a Quebec resident—just because you currently live in Quebec doesn't necessarily mean you have Quebec resident status!).

3. Press "Next" to proceed. Complete the "Identification", "Permanent Address", "Citizenship" and "Other Information" forms very carefully.

4. Fill out the rest of the application carefully.

You can press "Previous" to go back to earlier sections and confirm that you typed in all information correctly—note that once you've paid the application fee, you will not be able to modify your "answers"!

Check for submission and payment confirmation, and save a copy of your receipt. Also take note of your Application for Admission number, as you'll need it to log in and check your application status!

6. Upload all required documents directly to Omnivox (see below for a general checklist). Ensure you select the correct and good-quality documents before confirming an upload, because you won't be able to remove or modify it afterwards! Also note that the application module will allow you to select multiple files for one upload category (e.g. all sides of your report card if you didn't combine them into one document)—upload them all at once, or else you won't be able to add more files later on!

• Applicants attending a Quebec high school:
  • Birth certificate (include an official translation to English or French if applicable)
  • If born outside Canada, proof of: Canadian citizenship OR permanent residence OR (copy of) study permit and CAQ (Certificat d'acceptation du Québec) OR documents indicating your status in Quebec/Canada
  • If your school does not transmit grades electronically (check with your school/guidance counsellor): your most recent secondary V report card
• Additional documents (check program requirements): letter of intent, portfolio, etc.

You did it—you applied to Marianopolis College!
