Requirements

Admission Requirements: Direct entry from an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, or as a mature applicant, with Grade 12 English (C or U) and either Grade 11 Math (C, U or M with at least 60%) or Grade 12 Math (C or U); applicants short of this are directed to academic upgrading, or may complete the one-year Business Fundamentals preparatory program (BFS2), after which they can enter Level 2 of any Fanshawe business diploma. Graduates may go on to Business Administration – Accounting (Advanced Diploma) or the Honours Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) after bridging. English language proficiency: IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5, TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with no section below 4 (79 pre-2026), PTE Academic 53, Duolingo English Test 105 with no section below 95, or CAEL 60 overall with no section below 50 (80 in listening). Applicants may also apply for advanced standing on prior academic achievement or PLAR. Where applicants outnumber seats, Fanshawe ranks by preference for Ontario permanent residents, receipt of application by 1 February, then achievement in the admission requirements.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through ontariocolleges.ca: for Fall 2027 entry, applications open in early October 2026 and the equal-consideration date is 1 February 2027, after which later applications are assessed on a first-come basis until seats fill; non-competitive programs begin receiving offers from 1 November 2026, competitive-program offers go out by 30 March 2027, and 1 May 2027 is the usual deadline to accept an offer. International applicants apply directly to Fanshawe (CAD 100 fee) and face fixed document deadlines rather than a single closing date: for the current intakes, study-permit and conditions-met documents are due 10/15 August 2026 (Fall), 9/15 December 2026 (Winter) and 5/15 April 2027 (Summer); missing a deadline can mean deferral to the next intake. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
