Online MBAs in Canada


JessieT

Because of some crucial time and convenience variables, I've been looking at pursuing an online MBA instead of a standard one, and I've been taking a dive into the best ones on offer in Canada. I've been looking at some rankings but I'm not sure whether I should trust rankings for just online MBA programs, or I should be looking at regular rankings.

How much would online programs differ from in-person ones when it comes to the same school, in terms of quality, prestige, employability, etc?

I've been leaning towards Queen's as the best, prime option, given its status and slightly lower tuition fees (as well as required GMAT), in comparison with other top schools such as Ivey and Rotman.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Thanks for the resource provided. I'm looking to transition from a sales-oriented role into tech and aim for a role with a bigger focus on strategy and development.

A full-time program will be better for a major career change. However, if you're interested in a business development role in tech that can grow in a more strategic direction then an online or part-time MBA could be effective.
