Hello,

There are a few B-schools in Canada that encourage full-time MBA applications with 10+ years of experience. They are as follows:

1) UBC Sauder
2) HEC Montreal
3) UWO Ivey
4) University of victoria
5) Wilfrid Laurier

These are also some of the universities that do not have an upper age range for students. There have been admits before with similar profiles to yours.

You can also consider Executive MBA (EMBA) programs that will be closer to your age requirements. Queen's University, Rotman, Schulich, Ivey also offer the best EMBA programs in Canada.

Age is not a limiting factor for an MBA application, however, it is important to access your profile in detail to answer the important application questions: Why MBA? Why now? Your story needs to be aligned with your long-term career goals with a clear outline of your expectations at the university.

You can now find all the free resources on top B-school applications on the Website or try the free tools like the Intelligent B-School Selector Tool for a better evaluation.

Hello

I am from India, having total professional work experience of 10+ years as on date.

I am planning to apply for full time MBA in Canada. I contacted few schools for pre-assessment of my profile and most of them informed that my experience is more than what they are looking for in a full time MBA program.

Kindly suggest whether I should apply.

Also, please suggest the alternate options. Please note that I don't want to do any part time or online program. I am looking forward to any on-campus full time program.

Hello Antaratara,

Thanks for writing in.

While Canadian schools generally prefer those with lower years of experience, you could look at schools such as John Molson, Wilfred Laurier, and Sobey. That said, this is only preliminary feedback as a lot will also depend on your goals, GMAT score, and profile.

All the best!
