It’s that time of year again: MBA Fair tours are about to begin and the Ivey MBA Admissions and Recruiting team will be hitting the road in full force. If you’re interested in meeting with a member of our recruitment and admissions team this fall, check out where we’ll be by visiting us at /mba/events/fairs.htm.
One of the main questions that we get regardless of location when we’re meeting prospective applicants is, “am I a good fit for your Program?” This isn’t an easy question to answer because we take a number of factors into consideration when a person applies to our Program (including work experience, GMAT, undergrad grades, references), but it is a question that you should be able to answer for yourself by doing a bit of research.
Step 1: Check the minimum admissions requirements at /mba/admissions/criteria.htm
Step 2: If you meet the requirements, take our online Fit With Ivey quiz. This six question assessment will give you a better sense for whether or not your basic experience and goals match what we’re looking for in successful applicants to the Program.
Step 3: Join Inside Track. This way we can make sure that you don’t miss out on what’s going on at Ivey, and we can keep you up-to-date on recruiting events and admissions deadlines.
Step 4: Submit your resume via Inside Track for a complementary resume assessment. A member of the Ivey admissions team will provide you with a little more feedback regarding the work experience component of your profile and how it compares to successful candidates.
Finally, if at all possible, attend an Experience Event. The best way to determine if the Ivey MBA Program is right for you is to physically put yourself in the Ivey environment and see what we have to offer. First Class on the Roads are great for seeing what the case-based learning environment is like, and Class Visits / Open Houses give you an all around perspective of life at Ivey.
By taking the above steps, you should be able to get a better sense of your candidacy for the Ivey MBA Program and determine if Ivey is the right Program for you!
