A unique opportunity for unique learners

As the first dual admission MBA pathway of its kind in Canada or Ontario, this partnership will provide increased access, multiple pathways for lifelong learning, and flexibility for students and alumni while enabling professionals to upskill for a changing economy. 

The seamless dual admission process is also unique, granting students a single point of entry to both institutions. Those accepted to qualifying GBC programs who maintain the necessary GPA requirements will automatically be accepted to the MBA program, enabling them to earn a second credential at UCW. By streamlining institutional processes and eliminating duplication of application fees, GBC and UCW are removing barriers for students in their pursuit of lifelong learning and creating a new pathway to graduate studies.
