WESTERN/FANSHAWE COLLABORATIVE DEGREE/DIPLOMA IN MEDIA THEORY AND PRODUCTION
Admission Requirements
Admission to the program is through the University of Western Ontario and requires meeting the standards of admission to the University. Students must enroll at the University for their first year as MIT-designated students. Thirty-five students will be admitted to the second year of the program. Students will be evaluated for admission based on their academic standing by a joint committee from the two institutions. Attainment of minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission. Entry to the program is competitive on the basis of academic achievement. Students will be admitted to one of the program's four streams: Journalism-Broadcast, 10 students; Broadcasting-Television, 10 students; Multimedia Design and Production, 10 students; Broadcasting-Radio, 5 students. Students will rank their preferences but are not guaranteed to receive their first choice rankings. Stream selections will be indicated on the students' transcripts. Students who have applied to the collaborative program directly in first year will be given priority for admission to the second year. If the collaborative program is not filled from these students, other MIT students may then be considered for admission. The joint admissions committee will review requests for Advanced Standing on a case-by-case basis. Those students not offered a spot in the second-year collaborative program will be considered for continuation in the Bachelor of Arts in Media, Information and Technoculture, providing they are meeting academic progression requirements, or may apply to a Fanshawe College diploma program.
Progression Requirements
Students must maintain an overall weighted average of 68%, with no more than 1.0 unsatisfactory attempt in 5.0 full course equivalents in any given academic year.
Withdrawal
If, after first year, students wish to continue only in the MIT program, they will be permitted to progress into the second year of the three or four-year degree, provided that they have maintained a suitable academic average and that progression requirements have been met. If, after subsequent years, students wish to withdraw from either the Fanshawe or UWO portions of the degree/diploma, they should consult with their respective institution to determine which credits may be applied in a transfer to another program within one of the participating institutions.
Upgrading
Upon completion of the degree/diploma, students wishing to upgrade to a four-year university degree must complete no fewer than five senior MIT courses and maintain progression requirements to complete an MIT four-year degree.
