Hi, I am an international student and have been selected for MBA Programs in both, uOttawa(Telfer) and SFU(Beedie). From all the research i have done over the Internet, i understand that Telfer is a notch better than Beedie (Ranking Wise). However, Beedie does have the advantage of a better co-op program, 4-months internship program and location (comparatively warmer...heaven for a student from tropics). Financially and duration-wise, both the schools are on par.
Now I am totally confused on which school to join. I couldnt gather any information about the ROI. I would definitely need a job after the schools. Please suggest. Any ideas and views will be highly enlightening!
PS: Got an interview call from york-Schulich...hopefully i will convert that. Then there wont be any confusion whatsoever.

Although neither school offers any official post-MBA salary data, the data collected by other publications (Financial Post, Canadian Business, etc.) show Telfer grads getting around $83k per year, which is not bad. The Financial Post data says that Beedie grads get around $60k, on average. Not sure how reliable this data is, but it's a good starting point.

Thank you Ezra...that is indeed a good starting point, however, the 4-months internship is forcing me to inch towards Beedie. Can you help me understand on how important is an Internship as far as getting a job offer is concerned? I already have 5+ years of Experience in Software Industry. Also, any idea on the placement records of these schools?
Again, Thank you Ezra for the reply!
