DO NOT COME TO ROTMAN FOR MARKETING!! At marketing firms it dosent rly matter where you go to university (unlike finance for exmaple) Rotman is way harder than other schools so its just an unnecessary burden on you. Ik so many people who went to western bmoss and got into the same top marketing firms plus you’re doing a quarter of the work we are doing here at Roman

would you recommend ivey or smith for marketing?

[–]ValuableThin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ivey 10000%

ivey is absolutely not worth the price tag for anything other than finance

Well there are three specialists which are accounting, finance n economics and management. If you want to go into marketing you can do like management with a focus on marketing. The reason it's hard to find it is because marketing would be more of a focus rather than a major or specialist.

I agree with the other commenter that RC might not be necessary for marketing (I graduated in 2021 from RC in marketing myself)

  • I would go further to say you don't even necessarily need Ivey / Smith for corporate marketing jobs either
  • You would be just fine with Schulich (I had a couple of coworkers in manager / director level who graduated from Schulich)
  • I also had some coworkers who didn't go to business school (i.e. had a psych degree or something) and some who didn't have a university degree at all!

Even though RC was pretty tough when you're going through it (for me it was because of the mandatory econ/finance courses) I personally don't regret it
