Fanshawe College

Fanshawe College in London, Ontario is eliminating 400 full-time jobs (35% of its workforce) due to new caps on international students and provincial underfunding. The college is also suspending enrolment in 40 of its 220+ programs, with its international student population dropping from 8,500 to 4,200 students.

Fanshawe College announced an additional 163 job cuts, bringing the total workforce reduction target from 400 to 500 positions, despite receiving new provincial funding. The cuts are driven by lower-than-expected enrollment following federal restrictions on international students, with the college projecting 17,200 current students compared to 22,000 the previous year.
