Hi, I am in bit of a dilemma. Would like to do my MBA in Canada, I sont have any work experience. Is that a knock-out critera or can I substitute it with good grades or other things? Plz help!

Basically, all universities in Canada require work experience. The only one I can think of who doesnt require without experience is Malaspina University College.

I agree with gaga, work experience is more or less mandatory. I would advise you to try Australia or US. There are some colleges that accept students even without any w experience.

You can have a look here for the new official website presenting the top 9 MBA's in Canada

http://www.canadianmba.com

it's a nice site, but how "official" is it? and how did they come up with these nine business schools?

I have a work experience of around 5 Years in the field of information technology and of Indian nationality. Looking for doing MBA in CANADA, can anybody let me know how the job opportunity in CANADA for a foreigner.

D general trend all over the world is that b-schools accept candidates with esp only..however, there is always scope for exceptions. Schools do waive off this..but very rarely..(I don't to give you a wrong ray of hope).
Work ex is almost a prerequisite to apply. ;(
The idea behind the work ex is to make sure that you understand the b-environment n can gel well with the people.
(dat doesn't mean that people w/o work ex can gel well).

Regards..

Hi There,

Typically if you want to get into even a B school MBA program in Canada you need at least 2 yrs work experience

i'nt there any option for those without work experience???

None of the ranked MBAs in Canada will take candidates without work experience. You'll be better off either waiting, or applying to a pre-experience masters degree which is not an MBA. For example:

PS I don't know the McMaster programme mentioned below, but it looks excellent. I'd suggest looking carefully that placement and salary data.

McMaster offers a co-op MBA Program that does not require work experience.

Mostly you need to have a work-ex.

myfriend is b.pharma graduate (2011). he did job here india but he dont like the job in pharma co. i dont know why? may be the salary is not good.....

now he want to know some cheap and best program in canda or argentina for indian grduate which can earn him nice wages and PR.
he can afford INR 800000

That's less than $15,000 CND. I don't see how a programme that cheaply run, and with students with one year's work experience, can get great wages for its alumni.

Take a look at http://wannabehomesick.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/cheapest-schools-for-mba-program-in.html and also http://www.milliondollarjourney.com/canadas-most-expensive-and-lowest-cost-mba-programs.htm but remember that you get what you pay for.

Try using Google. That's how I found those first two links.

There are a handful of MBAs in either country. If your friend is not motivated to do this basic research for himself, I am not sure we would be helping him.
