Scout it out
The Scout it out is an activity with a limited number of places in total and per program. Although the registration deadline for the activity is Sunday, November 16, we may close registrations before this date if we have reached the maximum capacity for the activity. A registration is complete when we have all the requested documents.
What is Scout It Out?
If you live in a region other than Gaspésie and Magdalen Islands and are eligible to attend college next fall, this activity is for you. Scout it out aims to make you discover the Gaspé campus. This will allow you to validate your choice of program of study.
Activity Schedule
On November 20th, a bus chartered by the Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles will leave from Montréal and make stops along the way to take you to Gaspé. Depending on registrations, it will stop at the following locations: Drummondville, Lévis, La Pocatière, Rivière-du-Loup, Rimouski and Matane. Upon arrival in Gaspé, meals and accommodation will be provided.
On November 21st, you will have the opportunity to attend a class in the program of your choice and meet the faculty and student community. In addition to visiting the establishment, you will participate in an afternoon outdoor activity that will allow you to become familiar with the area.
On November 22nd, it is the bus ride back to your region.
