Program overview
The College Diploma - Business (BUS1) is a 2 year program at Fanshawe College’s London campus.
The general business diploma keeps every direction open: accounting, marketing, operations, HR and law studied as one connected core, with electives shaping the exit. It suits students who want business employability without prematurely committing to a specialisation — and every specialised diploma remains a transfer away.
London’s economy — health care, insurance, advanced manufacturing and education — hires college graduates at scale, and sits two hours from both Toronto and the US border at a fraction of Toronto’s rents.
The CIP classification here is 52.0101 (Business - general). Full-time, on-campus completion of an eligible two-year program supports the three-year permit; shorter programs support permits matching their length. IRCC decides finally.
