Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or equivalent, or mature-applicant status with Grade 12 English (C or U) and Grade 11 Math (C, M or U). Applicants short of these may pursue academic upgrading, with a conditional offer possible on proof of enrolment. Grade 11/12 Hospitality and Tourism (C), Grade 11 Travel and Tourism: A Regional Geographic Perspective (O), and study of an additional language (preferably French) are recommended but not mandatory. Applicants whose first language is not English must meet, among other accepted tests, IELTS Academic overall 6.0 with no band below 5.5, TOEFL iBT overall 4.5 with no band below 4 (79 under the pre-2026 scale), PTE Academic 53 (minimum 45), CAEL overall 60 (minimum 50), or Duolingo overall 105 (minimum 95). Permanent Ontario residents receive admission preference, and applications received after 1 February are considered on a first-come, first-served basis.

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.
