3. Admission, Promotion & Graduation
Fanshawe College’s requirements for admission to the Bachelor of Commerce (Digital Marketing)
program, for promotion within the program, and for graduation are consistent with the post‐secondary
character of degree‐granting organizations and meet PEQAB’s standard and benchmarks for admission,
promotion and graduation.
3.1 Admission Requirements for Direct Entry
Direct entry students must have completed an Ontario Secondary School Diploma with six Grade 12U or
M courses, including English (ENG4U) and advanced functions (MHF4U). They must have achieved a
minimum 65% average grade, calculated from all six courses, and a minimum 70% in both English and
Advanced Functions.
Policy 2‐A‐09 defines specific requirements for accommodations for applicants and students with
disabilities.
3.2 Admission Policies and Procedures for Mature Students
Mature students will be eligible for admission under the conditions described in the Policy 2‐A‐03.
Students who do not meet normal admission requirements may be eligible if they meet all of the
following conditions:
will be at least 21 years of age in the calendar year in which admission is sought;
do not have a formal basis of admission (applicants having previously attended a university or
community college will be reviewed under those regulations); and
have not normally been in full‐time attendance at an educational institution within the previous
four years.
Mature applicants who are eligible under the conditions above will further need to satisfy the requirement
for demonstrated competence in English and math. The College has established Admission Exams for
Adult Learners, administered through the Registrar’s Office. Adult upgrading opportunities are available
also through various educational institutions to help prepare learners for these Admission Exams.
Mature applicants who do not meet admission requirements for the degree program, but would be
eligible to enter the Business – Marketing diploma program or the Business Administration – Marketing
advanced diploma program, will be encouraged to apply for admission to the diploma program first and
then transfer, upon graduation, into the degree program.
Mature applicants and students have the opportunity to apply for recognition of prior learning through
properly documented workplace experience. Policy 2‐A‐10 defines the requirements for Prior Learning
Assessment and Recognition.
