Yes. The GMAT is an important admission requirement to our graduate business programs and is a standard requirement for most reputable graduate business schools. The exam results help us ensure that all admitted students are academically ready to study at the graduate level, and are often required by auditing companies to maintain our rankings as a top Canadian institution.
Please note that, although we prefer the GMAT, we may also accept the GRE exam. We use this ETS comparison tool to convert GRE scores to the GMAT scale.
Some exemptions may be considered at the discretion of the Admissions Committee but, in most cases, applicants will need to provide GMAT or GRE.
Read our blog to find out why the GMAT is important.
Do I need to have an undergraduate degree in business or commerce?
As a business school, we accept and encourage applicants from all academic disciplines. In fact, we believe that our graduate programs benefit from bringing together students from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives. As such, please do not consider a non-business background as a hindrance to applying to our programs. Depending on their background, accepted non-commerce students may be asked to take one or more supplemental courses.
What is the difference between the MBA and the MSc.?
The MBA and the MSc programs offered at the John Molson School of Business are very different.
The MBA (Master of Business Administration) offers a very hands-on, case-based approach to business administration, focused on developing a wide range of professional skills that are needed to move into managerial and leadership roles. The MBA is entirely course-based, with no mandatory research aspect to it (i.e., no thesis). A minimum of two years of work experience is required of all candidates to contextualize the theoretical concepts being taught.
The MSc (Master of Science) programs are research-based programs, which help students to become specialists in one subject (finance, management, marketing, or supply chain management). In the first half of the program, students complete advanced academic seminars, while the second half of the MSc programs involves the production of an independent research thesis under a faculty supervisor. The MSc leads to specialist roles in industry, or further into academia.
What are the career prospects for graduates of this program?
The MSc and MSCM degree leads to specialist roles in industry or further into academia through a PhD. As it is a specialized degree, you graduate with a certain level of expertise (depending on your particular thesis research area/topic), which you may use to apply to jobs in the field. John Molson’s Career Management Services provides yearly employment statistics.
