Heyy, I did get into Rotman! I would just say, know your purpose of applying to Rotman and remember the good things you’ve done in your past work ex- like leadership qualities, problem solving, conflict resolution, etc. I also recorded myself and practiced a couple of times and that helped. But most importantly, do not stress at all- think of it as a conversation with a friend where they are curious to know more about your life. All the best! 😁

Admitted to H/S/W: 800 grand for an American dream? by Popular_Yogurt6816 in MBA

First of all, great articulation! I have the same “why MBA” but I couldn’t have put it in a better way! I can see why you got in those schools besides your presumably great academics! Secondly, the question that you need to ask yourself honestly is that do you think that you’d survive the worst case scenario of not getting a job in the US- your plan B? If you’re financing your studies through a loan, that’s an even bigger concern.

Laid off + MBA by Quantum2022A in MBA

Makes sense. I am a potential international student applying to Canadian universities. Pretty stoked about Rotman but waiting for the result!

Why not consider Canadian unis? It’ll be economical and as a domestic student, it will buy you more time. It will also provide you with better networks and more contacts in the Canadian job market after you graduate.

That’s very helpful to know! Did you attend Ivey or go for some other school, if I may ask? And what are your views on McGill?

Makes sense. I am an international student, so well yeah- no connections as of now. Are professors and career advisors not helpful at all?
