- If you have more specific questions, you can contact the student coordinator for your department.
7. Why are language courses mandatory in my program?
- Language courses are included in DEC programs as it is a ministerial requirement for graduation. They are particularly important in order to prepare for the Uniform French Exam or the English Exit Exam. Please note that failing the exam will prevent you from obtaining your DEC diploma. This is why it is important to follow and pass the sequence of language courses planned by the College, which is different for each student and depends on the result of your placement test.
1. I am not satisfied with one of my exam results. What can I do?
- It is possible to request a grade revision. You can complete your Omnivox online application form in the My Forms section. The grade revision may be requested at the latest on the Friday preceding the beginning of the next semester.
- Please note that administrative fees will be charged. In the case where the grade revision is accepted, you will be able to make a refund request.
2. I was absent from an exam, what should I do?
- First, check with your teacher whether you can re-write the exam by providing valid medical proof of your absence.
- Upon the teacher’s recommendation, contact your program’s student coordinator (by mio only) with your supporting documents in order to obtain a retake authorization.
3. I already took classes at another school, can I have them credited?
- In the case of general education courses already successfully completed in Quebec, these will be added automatically to your file.
- For any other course, it is possible to request an equivalence. You can complete the application form found on Omnivox and send the required administrative documents by email to secretaire@collegelasalle.com.
4. My immigration documents will soon expire. What should I do?
- We strongly advise you to start your process at least three months before the expiry date of your documents.
- You must apply for an official transcript and a detailed attestation letter directly on Omnivox in the "Documents request" section. You can retrieve the documents from the secretary’s office of your school within 48 hours after submitting your request.
- Afterwards, you will be able to proceed with your request with the appropriate government authorities.

- For any cancellation, please contact your department’s student coordinator (by mio or in person) to discuss the terms and conditions and impacts of your decision.
8. What should I do if I'm sick and cannot attend my classes?
- The first step is to notify your teachers of the situation to justify your absences. Note that a justification for absences does not remove these hours of absence from your file.
- During an extended absence period due to medical reasons, you must notify the student coordinator of your department who will indicate the steps to follow depending on the situation.
9. I need a proof of registration.
- Depending on the details of the information you need, two letters of attestation of registration can be issued:

- Your transcript is available on Omnivox. However, in order to have a signed transcript with the College stamp, you must fill out the online form. You will find the form in the Omnivox ‘’Documents Request” section.
10. I have lost my report card/diploma/certificate.

Can I use a chosen first name in my interactions at the College?
Yes! To simplify our students’ interactions in their daily college activities, any LaSalle College student can request a chosen name.
This name will be prioritized in all College communications and interactions as well as in unofficial documents, while the legal first name will be used in official documents and government procedures.
For more information on this topic and to open a chosen first name application, our students must refer to the Frist name chosen or gender modification section.
Can I apply for a change of gender designation?
Yes, if the gender designation requested is the same as the gender designation indicated in the student’s official documents, such as a birth certificate or vital statistics document.
As is the case in any government document, the student can choose from the following three genders: “Male,” “Female” and “Non-binary.”
For more information on this topic and to open a change of gender designation application, our students must refer to the Frist name chosen or gender modification section.
