Vanier College

Vanier College is a publicly-funded English language CEGEP located in Montreal. Named in honour of General Georges P. Vanier, a Canadian soldier, diplomat and former Governor General of Canada, Vanier College opened its doors on September 8, 1970 welcoming close to 1,400 students in its first cohort. The Vanier College Crest is an adaptation of the Vanier family Coat of Arms.

As a college, we value education as a transformative process through which students engage in achieving their potential. Deeply anchored in our local and broader community, Vanier has long been a site of rich learning, cultural diversity and growth. The openness to others and inclusive and welcoming environment found at Vanier are fundamental to our mission.
