Postsecondary studies are a major investment in time, money and effort. You have certain goals in mind, and you need an institution that will get you there and impress you at every step of the way.
Collège Boréal isn’t just the smart choice, it’s a choice that can change your life. Here’s why.
Choose bilingualism
At Collège Boréal, you’ll study and be immersed in a French‑speaking environment, while training to work in a bilingual job market. Your professors will teach you industry terms both in English and en français. Why? Because we are dedicated to helping you succeed, and bilingualism is a huge asset in today’s labour market.
Choose a sure thing
Boréal guarantees that graduates who cannot find a job in their field of study can take a second postsecondary program full time for a maximum of two years FOR FREE. So why wait? You’ve got nothing to lose!
Choose to skip to the front of the line
With multiple transfer agreements and Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR), Collège Boréal has a range of options to help you enter the job market faster with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills employers are looking for. Plus, Collège Boréal offers dual credit programs (DCP), so you can even attend while you’re still in high school!
Choose success
Like only the best colleges, we make every student’s success a priority. In fact, it’s the most valuable service we offer, with small classes, a family approach and a range of services to support your well‑being.

Choose experiential learning
Our innovative learning techniques prepare you for the world of work. At Collège Boréal, over 97% of our programs offer experiential learning opportunities, like clinical or practical internships, co‑op placements, service learning and field experience. You might even travel as a student through one of our agreements or special projects.
Choose financial assistance
No one should ever go without high‑quality education because they don’t have enough money. That’s why Collège Boréal gives out more money per student than any other college in the province. In 2021–2022, we handed out 1,065 scholarships, for over $857,297 in total.

Choose to be number one
Out of all 24 community colleges in Ontario and according to the performance indicators recognized by the Ministry of Colleges and Universities, we are the only college to have achieved the top rank for two or more indicators in a single year, which we’ve done 20 times in 23 years.
Choose to celebrate diversity
At Collège Boréal, we welcome and value diversity from our staff, students and the communities we serve. We listen to new and different perspectives and acknowledge how some underrepresented groups in our society still face historic inequalities, systemic racism, discrimination and barriers to success. Choose Boréal to study and contribute to a healthy, respectful environment!
