Program details
Overview
The Interactive Media Design program will professionally prepare students for an evolving job market in digital media design, development and production, providing comprehensive training in new media technologies with an emphasis on web application design, interactive rich media, and current technologies for developing usable, media-rich sites and applications. The curriculum will combine courses in design, coding, marketing and media management and incorporate industry-standard tools from companies such as Adobe and Maxon, as well as open-source technologies for web application development.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to the Interactive Media Design diploma requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or equivalent, or mature-applicant standing; applicants without a high-school diploma may instead complete Fanshawe's Academic and Career Entrance (ACE) Grade 12 equivalency certificate. Applicants whose first language is not English must meet Fanshawe's proficiency standard: IELTS Academic overall 6.0 with no band under 5.5, TOEFL iBT overall 4.5 with no band under 4 (79 on the pre-2026 TOEFL scale), PTE Academic 53 with no band under 45, or Duolingo 105 with no section under 95 (CAEL, Cambridge English and LanguageCert Academic equivalents also accepted). Admitted students must complete a mandatory placement assessment for the program's WRIT course. Where the program is oversubscribed, Fanshawe gives priority to Ontario permanent residents and to applications received by February 1st, reviewing the remainder in order of admission-requirement achievement.
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.
