I guess it all depends on your post MBA goals. Schulich has a great program and is very well known within Canada. But go outside of Canada and no one has ever heard of it wheras McGill enjoys a great worldwide reputation. If you want to stay in Canada post-MBA, both schools are top notch. If you intend to work outside of Canada, then go to McGill without a question.
I'm a McGill alumni and I am extremely satisfied with the education that McGill has provided me with and I strongly believe that it will be much of the same in business school. If it were me, I'd definitely choose McGill over Schulich regardless of my post-MBA goals but again, I'm biased so you might want to get the opinion of an outsider.
You might want to consider that Schulich is ranked #2 in the least satisfied students ranking in bloomberg businessweek. https://www.businessweek.com/articles/20 ... ness-index

Nice input Tem, my inclination towards Mcgill was also coz of its worldwide reputation as a brand......However, when we talk about an MBA, things boil down to factors such as networking opportunities and locational advantage of being near the centre of all the action( I mean Toronto). Further, I believe to be successful in Montreal you need to have at-least intermediate skill with French. Learning french is always the way out, but practically speaking for me it would be difficult to gain the required level of expertise along with gruelling MBA studies.
Your least satisfied student B-school ranking might turn the odds towards Mcgill (Already favoured). I am only counting the negatives for Mcgill to you coz these are my concerns and I want to get past them before I finally choose Mcgill over Schulich. looking forward to you inputs
P.S.: I am surprised to see Rotman in that list too..Probab coz of poor career service centre.

Hi all! I'm applying to Desautels as well Working on the apps now. I looked at most of the top Canadian MBA programmes and like Desautels the most
I'll be visiting next month- hopefully I get invited to interview, fingers crossed- but I am slightly concerned about the climate in Montreal (Never been to Canada before, come fm a tropical island!) Sub zero temperatures for months do not sound fun- has anyone lived there before and does the cold detract fm the overall experience of Montreal? I've heard so many good things abt Montreal but visiting a place and living somewhere can be very different!
