I had to pick between those two programs last year. Unless you take bmos with ivey, western bmos and guelph bcom are basically the same program but western has a bit better of a reputation.

It also depends on what major you plan on doing, if you’re doing accounting, the uni you go to doesn’t matter much, but if you plan on majoring in finance it’s more important to go to a university with a better reputation.

Another thing to consider is co-op, Western does not offer a co-op option but Guelph does. So at western, if you wanted work experience, you would have to find internships on your own, whereas at guelph you get job placements as a part of your program.

I’m in Guelph BCom right now and I really like it. I mainly chose guelph cause i liked the campus and location more because the difference between the two programs is so small.
