The Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC/DCS) with the “DEC en sciences, lettres et arts” will qualify a student for admission to UPEI. Holders of the DEC will be considered as transfer students to second year with a maximum of 10 transfer credits provided that they attained an average grade of 70% or better in their final year of CEGEP study. Students with less than the DEC, and a 70% average, will be considered for admission to first year with the possibility of some transfer credits from second year CEGEP courses. Students who have completed a technical or professional DEC will be considered on an individual basis.
