| What it is | This is a one-year foundation program designed for international students whose secondary education doesn't directly align with Ontario's Grade 12 system. You take introductory courses in subjects like English, math, computer science, psychology, or geography while improving your English language skills, then progress into a regular University of Toronto bachelor's degree. It suits international students who need time to adjust academically and linguistically before starting a standard degree program. | You study business management and related fields like accounting, human resources, or entrepreneurship while alternating between classroom terms and paid work terms with employers. This co-op structure means you graduate with real workplace experience alongside your degree. The dual degree option lets you complete part of your studies at a partner institution abroad, typically NEOMA Business School in France, combining international education with Canadian credentials. This suits students who want hands-on business experience, practical skills, and potentially a global perspective before entering the workforce. | Commerce is a broad business degree where you study accounting, finance, marketing, management, and related topics. You choose a concentration like accounting or finance to specialize, rather than studying one narrow area. It suits people interested in business fundamentals and real-world work experience, since the program includes optional co-op placements that let you alternate between classes and paid jobs in your field. |
