Ivey Global Leader Award in Canada (MBA)

Ivey Global Leader Award in Canada (MBA)

At Ivey, we’re proud to be one of the top MBA programs in Canada with an exceptionally strong field of candidates. Our international applicants are held to the same high standard. In addition to meeting the minimum admission criteria for all candidates, international applicants will also need to ensure they submit the documents listed below.


Economic Stability

When compared to the US and UK, we are a less expensive country to live and study in, have higher GDP growth, and lower unemployment. It makes financial sense to choose Canada as your destination of study.

Welcoming Environment

Immigrants to Canada are encouraged to maintain their culture and identity. We rank third out of 31 countries in Europe and North America for the strength of our policies on equal rights, responsibilities, and opportunities for newcomers to Canada. (Migrant Integration Policy Index).

High Quality of Life

The standard of living in Canada is amongst the highest in the world. We consistently rank in the top five on the United Nation’s Human Development Index, which measures life expectancy, literacy, education, and standards of living for countries worldwide.

Opportunities to Work

International students can turn their study permit into a work permit immediately after graduation in addition to working on permanent residence status. Unlike the US or the UK, students who complete a degree in Canada are able to remain and work here for up to the length of the study program.

English Language Proficiency

Applicants are required to submit official records from each foreign institution attended after secondary school, including one copy of their original diploma and official certified transcripts. All official academic records must be issued in the original language and accompanied by English translations prepared by the issuing institution.

English Language Proficiency

International applicants who did not complete post-secondary education at an English speaking institution or do not have significant work experience in an English speaking environment will be required to demonstrate a strong level of English proficiency. This can be done through the successful completion of an English language proficiency test:

  • TOEFL (minimum internet-based score of 100)
  • IELTS General OR Academic (minimum score of 7)*
  • MELAB (minimum score of 85)
  • PTE (minimum score of 70)
  • CAEL (minimum overall score of 60 required with no part less than 60)
  • DUOLINGO (minimum score of 125)

Further detail on these tests is available from the British Council and English Language Institute.

*General IELTS test is recommended by Canadian Immigration.

    Hello.. I’m Dr. Maureen Mae C. Riña, a pediatrician from the Philippines. I graduated my premedical course from the University of the Philippines Diliman Campus and my medicine proper at Cebu Institute of Medicine. I am currently a Medical Officer IV from the City Health Office of Tagbilaran. I want to inquire if you offer scholarships in Public Health in Canada. Thank you.

    Hello Ivey,

    I am a Nigerian with several years experience working with international consulting firms.

    I will like to have an MBA in a top school – I recognise that this will significantly boost my ability to settle and work in Canada.

    However, I will need both a scholarship and a student loan (for tuition only; I have enough savings for living expenses).

    Please, what are my options with Ivey.
