Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Commerce with a major in Finance, offered by Concordia's John Molson School of Business, combines core business coursework with finance-specific study in investment analysis, financing alternatives, risk assessment, and wealth management, with concentration options in corporate finance, investments, financial institutions, derivatives, and international finance. Full-time study takes a minimum of three to four years (90-120 credits), depending on academic background, with classes on the Sir George Williams campus and admission in the Fall and Winter terms. Teaching combines lectures, case studies, simulation exercises, and experiential learning. Students may pursue a Major, an Honours option that includes a research component, or a Minor limited to JMSB students, and a cooperative education option provides paid work terms of 12 to 16 weeks in financial management, financial analysis, and portfolio investment roles. An integrated path lets students count up to 9 credits toward both the bachelor's degree and a Master of Science in Finance. The program suits students aiming for careers in investment and portfolio management or broader financial services.
Requirements

Ontario and other Canadian high-school applicants need a B overall average and B in a Grade 12 pre-calculus, calculus, Algebra II or College Algebra course; IB Diploma applicants need 29 points overall with 4 HL or 5 SL mathematics. Internal transfer applicants need a 2.7 average overall and in math with ECON 201, ECON 203, MATH 208 and MATH 209; external transfers need B- overall and in math.

Application Details
Start Date:September and January
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants, including Quebec CEGEP graduates, apply directly to Concordia: for Fall 2027 entry (September start) the application deadline is 1 March 2027, and for Winter 2027 entry (January start) it is 1 November 2026; not all programs admit in Winter. Concordia sets the same formal deadlines for U.S. and international applicants but strongly recommends applying earlier - by 1 February 2027 for Fall or 1 August 2026 for Winter - to allow time for immigration processing. Late applications are considered if space remains, and Concordia does not publish a separate application-opening date. Graduate programs, including the Executive MBA, set their own per-program deadlines rather than following this university-wide undergraduate date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
