The admission average is calculated in accordance with the Universitys guidelines.A minimum of three years of full-time managerial or professional work experience is required. Part-time positions, summer jobs, and co-op placements do not count toward this experience, but they are considered favorably during the file evaluation process. Preference is given to those who have greater work experience, particularly when there is evidence of management responsibilities and a net career progression.Applicants must achieve a competitive score in the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) to apply to the program in English, or in the TAGE MAGE to apply to the program in French.Exceptionally, a limited number of candidates may be considered for admission based on substantial managerial or professional training, and at least 10 years of work experience.
