A hidden gem for young queer love and learning. Cégep Gérald-Godin has honestly been one of the most welcoming and enriching places I’ve ever had the joy of being part of. As a gay man navigating both studies and young love, I couldn’t have asked for a better environment. My boyfriend Max—sweet, energetic, and twinkishly adorable—has thrived here alongside me, and we've both felt nothing but accepted.nnThe staff and professors are incredibly supportive, and it’s clear that inclusivity isn’t just a buzzword here—it’s woven into the culture. Whether it’s in class discussions, student clubs, or events, there’s always space for diverse voices, and we’ve never felt out of place. It’s the kind of place where Max can be unapologetically himself complete with his tiny shorts and oversized sweaters, and nobody bats an eye—except maybe in admiration.nnWe’ve made amazing friends, joined the LGBTQ+ student group, and even helped organize a queer film night on campus. The vibe here is laid-back, open-minded, and community-driven. Between cozy study sessions in the library and weekend picnics on the gorgeous campus grounds, this cégep has become a place of joy, growth, and a lot of cute selfies.nnIf you're queer and looking for a cégep where you can truly be yourself—and maybe fall a little more in love every day—Gérald-Godin is where it’s at.
I’m currently a student at Gerald Godin. The building itself is amazing. Teachers are nice and competent. Unlike College Saint-Louis in Lachine, this school actually has great personnel. The school principal is probably the nicest one that I’ve met yet. The teachers are competent. But the students? Not so much. I came from College Saint-Louis, an IB based school. And yes, it was challenging. But, I had a good study environment where everyone studied hard as hell. Here, nobody takes school seriously and I can’t stand that. That said, I have to give Gerald Godin what they deserve. And for me, a 3 out of 5 is the maximum I can give.
Great little college. I love it. I just wish the literature and philosophy classes weren’t so hard. But I guess that’s subjective.
