 * This may be disappointing. The issue, currently, is that the university may not pass our guidelines for whether an organization's article should be included. Because Wikipedia gets a lot of eager marketing employees trying to promote their company—not saying you are one!—we generally are quite strict on what organizations are allowed to be on here. You can read the guideline for details, but the gist is that we need multiple sources which are secondary (for example, not government documents), that provide in-depth coverage of the organization (in this case, perhaps history, relevant figures, admissions information), that are reliable (for example, appearing in a major newspaper), and that are totally independent (interviews, for example, do not count—there should be little intellectual influence of the organization or its members on the article). Also, at least one of the sources needs to be from a publisher who is not based in the local area.
 * I hope this isn't too discouraging. If the organization gets more attention from the media, it may eventually deserve an article, at which point this version may be undeleted, or a new one—citing these newly minted sources—published. Thanks! Ovinus (talk) 20:52, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

The International Business University is fairly well known among the business university world in the Greater Toronto Area. I have not analyzed articles linking or supporting it, but it is a choice students consider after high school. InternationalBusinessProf (talk) 17:06, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
