Quebec Students
Students from Quebec qualify for entrance into Neuchâtel Junior College once they have obtained Le Diplôme d’Études Secondaires. NJC requires that Quebec students take a minimum of seven courses in the full-year program. This is important for students who are interested in an accelerated route to university in Quebec (or elsewhere) and wish to bypass the two-year CEGEP system.
