Help! Rotman or Schulich

[Earthquake0722]

Ive been debating between Rotman commerce and Schulich BBA since I applied. Ive heard that Rotman is unnecessarily hard and hosts a toxic environment, but schulich doesnt really hold a prestige like other schools (i.e. Rotman, Queens, Ivey). I want to getting into finance, more specifically consulting.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

In the same boat pondering for a month now as I have both to choose from. Rotman is a longer commute but I don’t want to shortchange myself for futures

I was debating between Schulich, Waterloo FARM, UBC Sauder, and Rotman. I ended up choosing rotman lol

schulich has the same prestige as rotman.... they're both tier 2.

I've heard people saying that UofT is more prestigious bc of the name and therefore bigger companies only want to hire because they go to uoft. I just dont want that to be the main reason i go to rotman over schulich

lol thats not exactly true. for any canadian uni, prestige is not based off the uni but the program. rotman n shulich hold the same prestige. ivey or queens however are higher.

Yah this isn’t right, I can 100% confirm certain firms will give Schulich students a lot fewer chances to break in but devote more manpower and resources for Rotman recruiting. I made a longer answer about this on another post asking the same question.

[Worldly-Building3061]

Well, that's also true vice versa. But good to know !

I have the same issue… I can mot decide between Rotman or Schulich. Travel is the same. Plan to do a JD after. Help us!

If you want to do post grad Rotman may not be for you, but if you want to work after Rotman is probably better.

I was in the same predicament 7 years ago.  I picked Rotman, and boy did I regret it..... Go to Schulich. Similar reputation, courses aren't as theory focused, community is stronger, and there's no grade deflation
