MiM Admission

 Admission Requirements

Education Vs Experience

Applicants must hold a 4-year Bachelor of Business and Administration or other similar degrees. The minimum acceptable CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) is a 3.0 out of a possible 4.0, equivalent to a "B.”  Students in the Data Analytics specialization need to demonstrate quantitative skills for entry, for example with a degree in business, economics, physics, statistics, finance, mathematics, engineering, or relevant experience.

Applicants with other relevant degrees, a professional designation, or extensive professional experience will be considered at the discretion of the MiM Graduate Committee. 

A minimum of 2 years professional work experience is required for admittance into either stream.

For suitable applicants that have not fulfilled the required undergraduate business courses, the selection committee may recommend, if necessary, undergraduate Business & Administration courses that can be taken as part of Grad Studies, Qualifying Year program. Upon successful completion, while maintaining the above noted 3.0 CGPA, of those courses, the applicant would be considered qualified for the MiM program.

Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP)

International students wishing to qualify for post graduate work permits (PGWP) must complete more than 50% of their courses on campus in in-person courses (as opposed to online) and must be enrolled as full-time students. There are sufficient courses offered in both specializations to meet this requirement.

Please note: when online courses are offered (when there are no in person lectures), International students should continue to complete these courses in Canada.
