Whats the best UNDERGRAD business school in Canada?

<p>I know that either York or Queens are always ranked 1st, in all the MBA ranking systems, however for those truly interested in business a.k.a. an MBA, isn't the most important thing getting a good job out of college?</p>

<p>If that is the case shouldn't McGill, which attracts all the best recruiters in North-America, be ranked the best undergraduate business in Canada?</p>

<p>I'd say that an impressive list...</p>

<p>I am by no means an expert, I just want to know what the best B-schools are w/out someones posting Macleans or w/e rankings of Canadian business programs</p>

<p>And correct me if I'm wrong but aren't MBAs in general best to get in the US?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>you're in the right direction, but the best school in Canada is the University of Toronto, you should've known by now if you're so obsessed with rankings.</p>

<p>McGill's business school is it's weakest department, and the overall reputation of the school is dropping fast, I would say McGill is the best school AFTER UofT, UBC, Queen's, Western, Waterloo and many are on its level despite it is hanging on some old prestiege.</p>

<p>In terms of business school and MBAs in Canada, the best is Rotman, aka the School of Management from the University of Toronto, and there isn't much arguement about it.</p>

<p>McGill looks pretty good from the list of recruitment, all the major i-banks + lazard. it's the only canadian school that lazard is recruiting at so they must be doing something right.</p>

<p>i hear that university of western ontario has a pretty good business program</p>

<p>Yeah, it actually looks really good - check out the employment results</p>

<p>Why do no ranking systems have Rotman as #1?</p>

<p>Why do no ranking systems have Rotman as #1?</p>

<p>And how does an MBA from a top Candian mesure up to US MBAs?</p>

<p>And who are you to know this stuff? (student, teacher, etc...)</p>

<p>Sorry about the double post</p>

<p>The top 3 MBA programs in Canada are Western Ontario's Ivey school of business, University of Toronto's Rotman School of management and York's Schulich school of business. Rotman is best for finance and Schulich and Ivey are good for management/consulting.</p>

<p>Why do no ranking systems have Rotman as #1? All rankings are different. I'm sure there are rankings with Rotman as #1 in Canada.</p>

<p>And how does an MBA from a top Candian mesure up to US MBAs?
A canadian mba is good if your goal is to work on Bay Street(Canada's equivalent of Wall street, in Toronto). However they can't compare with a Harvard or Wharton MBA if you want to work on Wall Street.</p>

<p>Actually I've yet to see Rotman #1 on any ranking systems</p>

<p>And in terms of $$ which is what MBAs are supposed to make US school grads tend to make more than Candian</p>

<p>From what I've heard, Queen's and York are the top 2.</p>

<p>Thats what I've seen on all ranking systems, Financial times, Forbes etc...</p>

<p>As I said I have yet to see Rotman ranked #1</p>

<p>BUMP!</p>

<p>it's not the ranking that makes Rotman the best (just in case you didn't know Rotman was ranked best in some rankings last year). The rankings are subjective themselves and most of them are done by Americans, which we all know is ignorant about Canada.</p>

<p>it's a public and employee's consensus that UofT has the best business schools in Canada: they have tougest admissions, they have the best faulty, best starting salary, great alumni connections, in the heart of Canada's economy, and obviously they're backed by a great reputation in UofT.</p>

<p>abcboy, you seem to know about Canadian universities. What have you heard about Schulich at York University for Undergrad not MBA? I'll be attending it next year and want to know if it has any rep. in the States.</p>

<p>abcboy seems very impartial to Candian Unis, you're obviously Canadiana and most likeley attend/will attend Rotman</p>

<p>Which University in Canada will give you most job ops (in business) for top IB, consulting, or "big 4" account jobs?</p>

<p>And whats the best school in Canada?</p>

<p>University of Toronto definitely, but you shouldn't underestimate McGill!</p>

<p>Since when is that the case?</p>

<p>Since like forever. U of T is actually known to be the most prestigious college in Canada, and the McGill.</p>

<p>In general people know McGill to be #1 in Canada (in the world) and since rankings are purely marketing and repuation more people (including employers) are going to me impressed that you went to McGill rather than Toronto and it is indeed ranked higher than Toronto in such rating systems as "The Times".</p>

<p>And McGill used to be even better years ago, Toronto catching up is fairly new. "Since like forever" is not true.</p>

<p>Also both Universities are very limited by their funding, I think it makes more sens do your undergrad at a smaller college in the US (better funded)</p>

<p>yeah it would be, but business reputation wise I was talking about how people were selling Mcgill and Toronto short and underranking them.</p>
