Hey guys,

Any tips as to the pros and cons of an American MBA with respect to a Canadian MBA would be much welcome.

Thank you.

Globally known for the US Schools (Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, MIT, Booth, Kellogg, Berkeley Haas, Yale) vs the selected few Canadian schools that are as well known (Ivey/Rotman off the top of my head), but even so the Canadian schools arent even close.

Hi whiteshields1830

I have about a year of work experience so I am looking at early career MBA programs. Currently I have received admits from DeGroote - McMaster University (Canada), Atkinson - Willamette University (America) and Crummer - Rollins (America).

So trying to decide between these. Any advice?

To be honest, I have not heard of any of the schools you listed. Sorry I can't be of help.

Where do you want to be post-MBA that would influence greatly which country to choose. It's always a better idea to be as close to your target geography as most schools particularly the less reputed ones only have regional reputational strength with regards to recruiters

Sorry, have not heard of these programs. I maybe heard of the DeGroote but of others. I am sure you have your reasons to head to bschool only after a year of work experience but I would suggest to instead switch jobs/find a more challenging and fun career path and try better ranked schools in a few years.
