UNB SJ or Odette School of Business(U of Windsor). Please help.

[ikoniki]

Hello Friends...

I have narrowed down my options. The two Universities I am now considering are UNB SJ & UOFWINDSOR.

I know these are not great institutions but I am okay with that..I need your advise in picking one among these two. One of my main reasons for studying in Canada is to settle down in Canada.
My Profile - BBM - 80% University Topper & Gold Medalist, MBA from Bangalore Uni, India 70%
Age: 25
Experience 3+ years in IT Finance Operations.
IELTS: Yet to be given, but expecting a 7. Infact I need it to get into these insts.

GMAT: No. There are few universities offered me a GMAT waiver , but I selected these two from them.


Programme Details:

UNB SJ: 15 months, MBA in Intl Business, 3 months in France out of 15 months. Fee: 25000 CAD.

Uni folks are telling I will get atleast a 2 year PGWP, but 3 is also possible. Based on the credit hours. And then will have to apply under CEC, 1 year edu + 2 year work stream.

Odette School of Business:

14 months, MBA , Fee: 31000 CAD.

The plan here is to study in Ontario to get nominated under Opportunities Ontario PNP. Under which candidates who study in ON and are willing to settle in ON, PNP is given.

Their Website says no rejection , even if quota is filled, it will be moved to next year for priority processing.

Please help to find the better among these two considering the job prospects. I am ready to move after the course from both the universities to Toronto or any other major cities where jobs are available. Since both the universities are located in small towns.

Also please note that my main intention is to settle in canada..So I am okay with a decent university and safe settlement options.

Thanks in advance..Need your help badly seniors...Please Please...

I think Windsor is good one. Cuz SJ is far away and Certainly going france is not your requirement.

I know the Fee is much more in Odette School but i think its a wise option. You can get some tummy-filling jobs after getting an MBA from Odette. In short you can settle urself.

For UNB SJ i have no idea but just know few things that its far away, secondly not in Ontario.


studying in Windsor can give you options to look for Job in Toronto Area as its only 4 hours Away from there.

The equation is simple .. WP = Study Time.

* 12 months Study Gives 12 months WP
* Something above 12 (like 14 - 16 months) gets the 2 years WP
* 3 years WP is still a mystery some people get it doing the 16months but the longer course gets the 3 year WP

Yeah and you can look for Universities

* York University
* U of Waterloo ( they have a MBET program in Conrad School of Business - It does not require GMAT)
* U Of Western Ontario (in London City)


All of these have good MBA Program and they do require GMAT.

Wjaz..thanks for the advice....But as I said no plans for giving GMAT..Odette should be decent enough in my case.

brother Odette School is the right choice in your case. This will give you Ontario graduate degree.

You can choose Other Universities aswell But I would advise you not to go for collage as Collage certificates does not gives you a good job.
