criteria beyond those of program eligibility are invoked, such criteria will be
fanshawec.ca
Admission to the College (cont.)
established by the College on a program-specific basis. The criteria will be
objective, measurable and relevant to the program.
While no Secondary School University Stream Course and/or Ontario
Academic Course (OAC) and/or Grade 13 Course shall be required, one of
these courses in the same subject area may be used as a substitute for a
required course. As appropriate, a University/OAC/Grade 13 Course may also
be substituted if it is advantageous in the student’s admission.
Fanshawe College will not consider secondary school failures. Only the best
grade will be used where multiple attempts have been made.
Applicants currently attending a semestered secondary school are
encouraged to complete, in the first semester, program prerequisite courses
in order that final marks for these courses may be used in the selection.
If this is not possible, the College will estimate marks based on previous
achievement at the senior level in secondary school. Applicants currently
attending a non-semestered secondary school will have their mid-year marks
used in the selection. It is important to note that mid-term second semester
marks from secondary school will not be used in the selection. Applicants
must successfully complete all required courses and meet any minimum
grade requirements (if applicable) at least three weeks prior to the start of
classes unless advised otherwise.
Applicants currently attending a post-secondary institution will only have
their marks from the Fall Term used in the selection. Only those marks which
appear on the transcript will be evaluated and used in the selection grid for
additional points. In addition, where required courses are taken in the Winter
Term, the College will estimate marks based on previous achievement.
Applicants must successfully complete all required courses and meet any
minimum grade requirements (if applicable) at least three weeks prior to the
start of classes unless advised otherwise.
Admission requirements for Applied Degree programs will be appropriate
to the learning outcomes of the program and to the Applied Degree Level
Standard issued by the Post-Secondary Education Quality Assessment Board,

courses at the grade 12 level, a minimum average of 65%, and additional
requirements as specified by the program.

The Specific Selection Criteria used for each program is shown in the
individual program descriptions in this Program Calendar.
Within the above categories no geographic location will be used as a basis
for admission.
Not withstanding the above, International students may be admitted on a
preferential basis to oversubscribed programs in the following circumstances:
• where the College has established a special program, or a special
section within a program, specifically for International students;
• where the Academic Manager approves the creation of a
“supernumerary” seat or seats within a program specifically for an
International student or students (i.e. a seat or seats in addition to
the approved maximum registration figure for the program) by the
commencement of the admission cycle for International students. An
International student is admitted to the supernumerary seat only if she/
he achieves the same admission criteria as other admitted applicants.
SELECTION GRID
Annually the Registrar prepares a set of criteria for approval by Academic
Managers, applicable to all college post-secondary, graduate, applied degree
and collaborative college/university degree programs entitled a “Standard
Admission Grid”.
The Registrar also prepares annually a “Program Admission Grid” for each
post-secondary program, applied degree program, graduate program,
and collaborative university/college degree program for approval by the
Academic Managers. The Program Admission Grid will include all of the
selection criteria approved for the program. The weighting of each of the
criteria will also be indicated on the Program Admission Grid.
2014-2015
293
Admission to the College (cont.)
IMPORTANT NOTES ON SELECTION
Secondary School Academic Achievement
Fanshawe College will treat applicants from the (OSS) curriculum with
College (‘C’), University (‘U’), University/College (‘M’) and Open (‘O’)
courses the same as applicants from the (OS:IS) curriculum at the Advanced
Level. This means that Fanshawe College will give applicants from the
(OSS) curriculum with ‘C’, ‘U’, ‘M’ and ‘O’ courses a 15% differential in the
selection process as has been previously assigned to applicants from the
(OS:IS) curriculum with Advanced Level courses. Applicants from the (OS:IS)
curriculum with Advanced Level courses will continue to receive the 15%
differential and General Level applicants from the (OS:IS) curriculum will
continue to be assessed without the differential. There will be no weighting
between ‘C’, ‘U’, ‘M’ and ‘O’ courses in the (OSS) curriculum - all will be
given the 15% differential.
Recommended Academic Achievement
This preparation is not required for admission to the program but is
recommended as a valuable preparation for success in the program.
Recommended courses will not be used in the selection unless it is to break
a tie on the Admission Grid.
Non-Academic Selection Criteria
Selection criteria other than secondary or post-secondary achievement
will be used where the related skills are deemed necessary for success
in the program and where relevant supporting academic documentation is
insufficient to form a judgment of the ability of the applicant to succeed
in the program. These assessment tools are administered by the Program
School and form part of the Admission Grid.
OFFER OF ADMISSION
An offer of admission to a College program occurs when the Office of the
Registrar notifies the applicant. Conditional admission may be offered
where a program requirement is in progress or sufficient upgrading, and/
or remediation is available and completed before the commencement of
a program.
For applicants who do not satisfy the conditions and for other causes
(e.g. non-payment of fees), the College may withdraw the offer of admission.
ADMISSIONS APPEAL
Applicants who are refused admission may request a review of the admission
decision and/or obtain the specific reasons for such refusal by submitting a
request in writing to the Associate Registrar - Admission Services within 30
days of issuance of the decision. Appeals received after this date will not
be considered.
PROGRAM SUSPENSION AND CANCELLATION
The College reserves the right to cancel, at any time, a program, course,
a program major or option, change the location and/or term in which
a program or course is offered, or change the program curriculum as
necessary to meet current competencies in the job market or for budgetary
reasons, or withdraw an offer of admission both prior to and after its
acceptance by an applicant or student because of insufficient applications or
registrations, over-acceptance of offers of admission, budgetary constraints,
or for other such reasons. In the event the College exercises such a right,
the College’s sole liability will be the return of monies paid by the applicant
or student to the College.
294
In the event a program is suspended or cancelled, Fanshawe College
will provide students already enrolled in the program, the opportunity to
complete the program within the normal time period. In some circumstances
transfer of such students to another college may be more practical and
Fanshawe College will assist these students to become enrolled in the
same program offered by another college located within a reasonable
distance from Fanshawe College. This is in accordance with the Ontario
Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology Policy IV.10 - ‘Program Suspension
and Cancellation’.
RE-ADMISSION
A student may apply for re-admission to a program if there has been an
interruption from the program. If the student is re-admitted to a program
after a substantial absence, the College may require the student to
demonstrate current competence in courses already passed (e.g. by means
of a challenge exam and/or by repeating all or part of the course(s). In the
case of expulsion, the terms of re-admission will require the approval of the
Senior Vice-President, Academic Services. Re-admission to all levels requires
school approval, satisfactory academic achievement and space availability
and may be conditional. First level applicants will be ranked and selected in
the same manner as other level one applicants.
ADVANCED STANDING AND PROGRAM TRANSFER
Advanced Standing is credit granted on a course-by-course basis for a
program level or levels on the basis of previous academic achievement
at another institution and/or prior learning assessment and recognition.
Advanced Standing qualifies the applicant for direct entry to a second
or higher level of the program. Program Transfer is transfer from one
Fanshawe College post-secondary program to another assessed on a courseby-course basis.
PRIOR LEARNING ASSESSMENT AND RECOGNITION
Prior learning assessment aims to accurately and equitably assess collegelevel learning which has occurred outside of the formal educational setting.
Full details may be found in the ‘Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition’
policy, 2-A-10. In accordance with College Policy 2-B-17, ‘Graduation from
Approved College Programs’, PLAR candidates must satisfy the College
residency requirement in order to be eligible to receive a college credential.
APPLICANTS WITH DISABILITIES
Fanshawe College provides a wide range of support services for students
with disabilities.
Early self-identification is important to ensure the best quality of service.
Applicants who feel they may require assistance and/or accommodation are

of decision date.

of their OSSD or individual academic requirements (e.g. Grade 12 English),

commencement of their program of study unless advised otherwise.
298
Applicants placed on a waiting list for a program will be advised of their
relative position on the waiting list by May 5th. A wait list is established
when the number of eligible applicants to a program exceeds the number of
spaces available in the program. If any of the admitted applicants decline

those applicants who confirm a position on the waiting list.
Applicants who are offered admission to the College must confirm their

PRE-CLINICAL/PLACEMENT CONDITION
An essential component of many College programs is experiential learning
through clinical or field practice relevant to the program. In order to ensure
high standards and quality educational offerings which will permit students
maximum opportunities to achieve learning objectives, Fanshawe College
reserves the right to place students in an agency or combination of agencies
it determines to be appropriate. While every effort is made to maximize use
of local agencies, there is sometimes a need to place students outside of the
area for some programs or portions of programs.
Accordingly, an offer of admission is subject to the condition that the student
must be prepared for the possibility of assignment to experiential learning
outside of the area, and for the possibility of having to relocate, at the
student’s own expense, for all or a portion of this experience. Students are
responsible for all costs associated with clinical/field placement (including
volunteer hours).
Any applicant who has a question concerning this policy is advised to contact
the Academic Manager of the School responsible for the program at the time
of application.
POLICE RECORD CHECK AND VULNERABLE
SECTOR SCREENING
Applicants are advised that most clinical/field placement agencies require a
Police Record Check and/or Vulnerable Sector Screening including a check
of the Pardoned Sexual Offenders Database. Certain criminal convictions for
which pardons have not been received may or may not permit placement in
these agencies. In the latter cases, program completion will not be possible.

a Bus Pass. The card is used for photo-identification; borrowing material
at the Library; access to rooms and labs and accessing accounts for the
College’s Meal Plan, photocopiers or printers. Lost, stolen or damaged cards
can be replaced for a charge of $25.00. Students can obtain their Campus

LATE REGISTRATION
The last date for registration in College programs, or to change from one
program to another (with School approval) varies by program but is no later
than the first ten (10) days of classes.
When students wish to withdraw from a program or course this will affect
his/her academic record and/or fee account. It is important that students
formally withdraw by providing written notice even if no refund is available
so that the fact of withdrawal will be recorded by the Office of the Registrar
on the student record. Students who leave the College without completing
the formal withdrawal procedure may jeopardize their academic record and/
or fee account at the College. The results could affect their chances for
re-admission to the College at a later date or to another post-secondary
institution. In addition, students who leave without completing the formal
withdrawal are still responsible for any outstanding fees and administrative
charges for the program level until an unpaid balance is paid in full.
On receipt of the completed form, the Registrar will record on the student’s
record the statement ‘Withdrawn’.
Withdrawal from a Program Full-time students may formally withdraw from a program at any time during
a program level. Students contemplating withdrawal are encouraged to meet
with a College counsellor or Program Student Success Advisor. If, a student
wishes to withdraw; he/she should proceed as follows:
• During the first ten days of classes students may initiate the
withdrawal process at the Office of the Registrar in Room E1012,
London Campus or at their Campus Office.
• Students may initiate the withdrawal process at any time with their
Counsellor or Student Success Advisor. • Students who withdraw must return their Campus Card and London
Transit Bus Pass, if applicable.
• Any refund of fees will be in accordance with current College policy
concerning fees 2-E-01. Students should note that after the first ten
(10) days of classes, students are responsible for all fees for the
current level including an administrative charge.
• Academic records and course status will be updated based on the
date of withdrawal (see withdrawal from a course below)
• OSAP recipients are encouraged to speak to the Financial Aid office
prior to withdrawal to discuss the impact of withdrawal on OSAP.
• In some circumstances, at the discretion of the Registrar, the College
may act as the agent of the student in completing the withdrawal
process. This would occur in cases such as the death of the student,
serious illness preventing the student from coming to the College or
receipt of a letter or other formal communication from the student
advising of the wish to withdraw.
The official date of the withdrawal is the date the withdrawal form is received
by the Office of the Registrar.
Withdrawal from a Course
An administrative charge will apply to cancelled registrants who
subsequently wish to be reinstated.
Students who begin programs or courses late are responsible for making
up any missed content and for any costs associated with make-up activities.
In addition, students who begin programs or courses late should be aware
that the deadline to withdraw or drop courses is calculated from the
original commencement date of the program or the course and fees will
apply accordingly.
If a full-time student withdraws from a course before the 10th day of
classes for the term, there is no record of course enrolment. A refund
is not applicable unless the student withdraws completely from the
program or is approved for part-time status and makes this change by the
appropriate deadline.
As full-time enrolment status is dictated by the Ministry Fee Audit Guidelines,
students must be aware of the impact of withdrawing from a course or
courses on their enrolment status and eligibility for financial assistance.
2014-2015
299
Registration (cont.)
Part-time students register and pay fees on a course by course basis. If a
part-time student withdraws from a course by the deadline established for
the course there is no record of course enrolment. Refund consideration will
be granted based on the date of withdrawal. (Deadlines may vary based on
course start and end dates). If a student withdraws from a course after the
refund date but before the withdrawal without academic penalty date, the
student will be assigned a ‘W’ grade on the academic record and there is no
refund of fees.
When a student withdraws from a program, any refund of fees will be in
accordance with current College policy concerning fees 2-E-01.
If a student withdraws from a course after the academic penalty date, the
student will be assigned an ‘F’ grade on the academic record and there is
no refund of fees. The withdrawal without academic penalty deadline falls
between the refund date and a date representing 70% of the total course
duration calculated from the course start date.
The withdrawal deadlines are applicable to full-time and part-time day
post-secondary students only. Adult Training and Apprenticeship Training
students are advised to contact the Office of the Registrar if refund deadline
information is required.

Student Academic Achievement
INTRODUCTION
GRADUATION FROM A PROGRAM
Each full-time student is registered in a specific program. Each program is
defined in terms of courses to be completed as a condition of graduation
from that program.
At Fanshawe College, students may enroll in programs leading to a
Certificate, Ontario College Certificate, Ontario College Diploma, Ontario
College Advanced Diploma, Ontario College Graduate Certificate, Applied
Degree or Declaration of Academic Achievement. Graduation from college
programs requires a student to complete the program curriculum, meeting
its academic standards, achieving a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0. In
Applied Degree programs, students must achieve a minimum average of 2.5
(C+) in vocational courses and 2.0 (C) in all other courses in order to be

ACADEMIC STANDING
Academic Standing statements are provided to full-time students at the
completion of each term to indicate their status toward completion of
program requirements and their status in the program at a given period
of time.
At the end of each term, there are four possible academic
standing statements:
• In Good Standing: all required courses completed; acceptable grade
point average
• Conditional Continuation: either one required course is assigned a failing
grade or unacceptable grade point average achieved
• Academic Probation: occurs when one of the following conditions applies:
• more than one of the required courses are assigned a failing grade
and an unacceptable grade point average
• two of the required courses are assigned a failing grade;
• repeated academic probation standing
• Required to Re-apply: occurs when one of the following
conditions applies:
• two or more academic probation standings
• one or two of the required courses are assigned a failing grade and a
grade point average less than 1.26
• three or more of the required courses are assigned a failing grade
and a grade point average less than 1.76
• grade point average of less than 1.26 for two consecutive semesters
In Co-operative Education, there are two possible status options:
• Co-operative Work Term Complete
• Co-operative Work Term Incomplete
At the completion of the final level of the program, there are two
possible standings:
• Recommended for Graduation: all required courses completed;
acceptable grade point average
• Program Incomplete: all required courses not completed and/or
unacceptable grade point average
GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA)
The cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) will reflect the average of the
grades in the program curriculum up to that point and will be used to
determine academic standing. Grade Point Average (GPA) will be calculated
at the end of every term for the student. The Term GPA will reflect the
weighted average of the grades in that term’s courses. Only the grades of
A+, A, B+, B, C+, C, D+ D, and F will be used in the calculation of both
term and cumulative GPAs. In the case that a student has retaken a course,
the highest grade achieved will be used to calculate the cumulative GPA. Internal credits will not be used in the GPA calculations. Credit achieved
through Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition will display on the
student’s transcript and will be used in the cumulative GPA calculation as
appropriate. Both the Term and Cumulative GPA will be reflected on the
student’s official record for full-time students.
Minimum Standards:
In addition to meeting the program’s individual standards, all students
must achieve a cumulative GPA of 2.0 to be eligible to graduate. In nongraduating terms, students with a GPA of between 1.75 – 1.26 will be notified
that they are at risk of failure and will be placed on academic probation. A
student success plan will be developed. Students with a term GPA of 1.25
or less will be placed on academic probation and will require permission
of the Academic Manager or designate to continue. Students having two
consecutive semesters of academic probation will not be permitted to
progress. Some programs may have a higher minimum GPA for progression
purposes. Students registered in Applied Degree programs must maintain
a minimum average of 2.5 (C+) in the vocational courses and 2.0 (C) in all
other courses in order to progress, and in order to be eligible to graduate.
In exceptional circumstances, where a student has contravened a college
policy that impacts his/her academic standing, the following status
will appear:
• Not in Good Standing: the student is not in good standing as a result
of suspension or expulsion in accordance with College policy or a fee
default such as an outstanding Library fine. The Registrar may restrict
service to the student until the status is removed.
PROGRESS TOWARD GRADUATION
From initial registration, there is a maximum of seven years (full-time or
part-time) to complete program curriculum. Additionally, students must
meet the academic standards and competencies of the program in order to
graduate. Students extending beyond that time frame and/or not meeting
the standards/competencies will be assessed to determine if upgrading
measures are necessary or available.
College Residency Requirement
To be eligible for any College approved credential, the student must be
enrolled and complete at least 25% of that program’s credit units at
Fanshawe College.
