The Telfer MBA has been ranked in second place in the 2016 Canadian Business Value Ranking, which ranks the ten best MBAs in the country on the value they offer and the return on investment they provide. Programs included in the ranking combine a few key traits: a recognizable brand name on your degree; a diverse mix of bright people in the classroom; affordable tuition; and a shorter duration so that you're not out of the workforce for long.
“This ranking attests to the hard work of a lot of people at Telfer who are focused on delivering exceptional value to our MBA students. We’ll continue this tradition as we add even more features to our program over the next few years,” says Greg Richards, Director of the Telfer MBA.
The Canadian Business Value Ranking’s methodology is based on a point system that awards points to schools based on a weighted ranking, including: 33.5% reputation, 20.5% classroom experience, 13% average GMAT scores, 13% tuition, 13% required work experience and 7% program length. The ranking only includes full-time MBA programs.
