Hello MBAStudent 2015,
Something important to note is that while we are neighbours with the US, our government, laws and foreign workers policies are
completely different and totally unrelated. I’ve read some news about the US tightening its immigration rules. This is unrelated to Canada. For the latest on Canadian immigration policies, you should check the Canadian news about Canadian immigration policies.
Because international students that study at Rotman automatically get a 3-year work permit, employers do not have a bias for domestic over international students since employers know they can hire Rotman grads and keep them for at least 3 years, regardless where they are from. (and usually within those 3 years, our international grads end up getting permanent residency or citizenship here in Canada making work permits no longer an issue)
Hopefully that makes sense! As always, for the latest scoop and insight on studying at Rotman, career opportunities post-MBA, etc, feel free to email us at
mba@rotman.utoronto.ca! We respond to all emails pretty quickly so you can be sure that your questions will not be left unanswered!
Regards,
