3.2.4 FAST TRACK M.B.A. PROGRAM

This program is designed for students who have graduated from a four-year honours business program. Fast Track M.B.A. students are exempt from the first (qualifying) year of the regular program, entering directly into the second (candidate) year. It includes not only traditional academic course work but also a co-operative work placement with selected organizations. The program is purposely designed to provide practical knowledge based experience usually not available at an undergraduate level.

Students with an Honours Bachelor of Commerce Degree

Students holding an Honours B.Comm. degree may obtain both the LL.B. and M.B.A. degrees without the assistance of a special integrated program. However, by submitting applications simultaneously to both the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research and indicating an interest in the program, such students may be granted a deferred admission to whichever degree program he or she elects to take second. This special deferred admission will be revoked if the applicant's performance in the first program fails to meet the first-year academic standards of the program. In such case the applicant may re-apply for regular admission to the second degree program.

Note: The University reserves the right to make changes in the integrated program and any rules or regulations applying to it.
