Program Overview
David Wood, former Faculty Director, Accelerated MBA, provides an overview of the program and how it differs from the full-time MBA program.


Program Schedule
Pursue a world-class Ivey MBA while continuing to work through one of two flexible pathways. Business graduates begin the Accelerated MBA with online fundamentals in November, followed by a one-week residential session in London, Ontario, in January. Monthly three-day, in-person sessions in downtown Toronto (Friday to Sunday) and a capstone international study trip in August round out the experience. Non-business graduates begin with the part-time, four-month Graduate Diploma in Management in May, delivered at the Toronto campus, featuring two weekend sessions per month and a five-day capstone project in August.
The Ivey Difference
Case Method Learning
At Ivey you will gain more than just business leadership knowledge. You will develop the ability to apply that knowledge in ways that drive your business and your career forward. We call these capabilities the Ivey Leadership Essentials.
Facilities and Location
Located in the heart of Toronto’s financial district, Ivey’s downtown Toronto campus is designed with the working professional in mind. For business graduates, the program begins with a retreat-style residential week at Ivey’s Spencer Leadership Centre in London, Ontario, followed by sessions at the Toronto campus from February through November. For non-business graduates, the journey begins with the Graduate Diploma in Management, a part-time, in-person program held at the Toronto campus from May to August, preparing you to join the Accelerated MBA.


Tuition and Finance
Ivey has developed an MBA Preferred Loan Program in partnerships with several Canadian banks. The attractive loan packages are available to Ivey Accelerated MBA candidates. For more information, please contact our office.
