Beckie Thain-Blonk
Vancouver, British Columbia"When it came time for me to consider MBA schools, Ivey was always at the top of the list, primarily because of my experience with my colleagues. Now, having experienced the program, I am thrilled with my personal and professional growth to date. The case method may not be for everyone, but I cannot think of going through an MBA program any other way."
Stanley Opara
Lagos, Nigeria"I chose Ivey because of the outstanding faculty, the fact that it's a program based on the case method, and the fact that it emphasizes leadership, collaboration, and sustainability. Having an optimum class size, a large close-knit alumni community, and a location in a country that is welcoming, diverse, and progressive made Ivey resonate strongly with me, and the experience has exceeded my expectations."
Mehek Mansure
Mumbai, India"The Ivey values of embracing diversity, building a community, and paying it forward have truly resonated with me through the course of the program. Ivey works hard to put together a diverse class, which is truly beneficial. We have people from different geographies and diverse business backgrounds, but we also have engineers, chefs, and sailors in our class! Listening to so many different perspectives in class has shaped my thinking and broadened my horizons."
