Hello to you all,
Thank you for your comments
merokoli, I’m really glad that we could provide you with enough insight and knowledge for your application process in DeGroote.
I will provide additional information to complete Vijay statement.
Sauder and John Molson are really great schools, once more, I can’t really say which school is the best, most business magazines, news, social media, and if not bystanders, tend to place Rotman, Sauder and McGill as the top schools in Canada. Rotman and McGill do have well renowned brand names in the international business community, especially if you want to pursue a finance career. You do have a great GMAT, more than enough to apply for the top schools around the world, I’m confident you will be successful whether the path you trace yourself.
The acceptance rate for the DeGroote School of Business is 42% according to a study of the National Post. Alberta is 27%, McGill is 32%, Sauder is also 42%. I have no info about Rotman, but it also should be around the Alberta and the McGill range. This study is done back at 2012, but I think that the range has remained somewhat the same until today.
I going to attach a pdf in which you can find the information that I’m supplying you, you can also find information regarding post MBA salaries, among others. I recommend you seeing Canadian business magazine and Macclean’s for additional information regarding programs and rankings.
If you can see the 2014 DeGroote MBA brochure, post MBA average starting salary ranges around $68,350. In the national post, DeGroote MBA average starting salary ranges around $66,389, so at least regarding the salary, the numbers are somewhat similar. Alberta and Sauder have higher starting salaries. McGill has a notable starting average salary of $112,000. Usually top tier No 1 schools have starting salaries above $100k. But in the end this is all statistics.
Hello
aashishmalhotra02, I’m glad that you both have obtained an offer to DeGroote co-op. This is the first time I heard that a couple are both joining an MBA program. I’m guessing that the experience will be quite unique during the program for both of you.
Hello
indierohit, I just found out that you also got into McGill. I’m guessing that your choice was really hard to make. I was going to say that McGill kind of have a co-op for their FT students, they called it “internship”, but is pretty much the same thing if you look into it (I really hope that I'm not mistaken).
Hello
prateek720, try to scan through this thread that we have given more than enough advice to tackle the video interview. The questions are totally random, mostly behavioral questions, time yourself using a video cam, and try to write down your most memorable experiences (especially work related) while practicing. Don’t forget to dress nicely. The questions are aimed to know you a bit better, there is no perfect response, try to answer specifically what they are asking you to respond. It will take you at most 15 to 30 min to complete. If you are an international applicant, don’t worry if you make some mistakes, DeGroote is aware that English is not your first language and mistakes are common. Best of all luck.
