Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) in Financial Services is taught at Conestoga College Doon campus, a public Ontario college on the post-secondary institution list.

Conestoga records the financial services degree under CIP 52.0804. That exemption lets the financial services degree support a post-graduation work permit of up to three years whatever the subject. Ontario still requires a provincial attestation letter before the financial services degree can support a study permit application.
