Get a World-Class MBA in Canada

Everyone thinks the US has all the best MBA schools, but the facts show that many of the top 20 schools in the world exist elsewhere.

Take Canada, for example.  They have the Ivey MBA, arguably the best in Canada, and hotly contested by York University, Queen's University, and ...

even a few others, like University of Toronto, too.  All these schools provide a fantastic business education, but York tries harder by partnering with Kellogg to have that U.S. connection.

The variability in schools isn't as great in Canada as America, and if you wish to specialize in Finance or Marketing, there isn't a school that stands out like in the U.S.A.

Or course, that means you get a broader education, giving you a better chance to become CEO, or General Manager of a country in a large multinational corporation.

Of course, if you are entrepreneurial, then you want to find a school where they support new business develop, and our survey of the schools suggest that is all of them!

One thing to remember is the budget - in Canada, the prices vary wildly, so you can pay anywhere from $5,000 up to $100,000/year for an MBA.  The

adage of "you get what you pay for..." isn't quite true here, since some of the cheaper educations give good value for money.

Almost all of the Canadian MBA schools require you to write the GMAT, so you should do some test preparation for this test, and make sure you do well.  Western (Ivey), for instance, doesn't demand it, but everyone that makes the class submits a GMAT score, and the average score is quite high.

In Canada, you also need to provide work and character references, so be sure to get 1+ years of work experience under your belt before you apply - it really helps enrich the experience.

If you choose an executive MBA in Canada, your experience plays an even bigger role, so be sure you have 3+ years work experience before doing this part-time MBA.

There are many Canadian MBA grads working internationally, so don't think it will limit you if you do your business degree in Canada.  Other countries don't recognize the schools that well, but they see the result in you, and that is what counts most.
