What schools have the best marketing programs?

Universities for Master of Marketing in Canada?

• I'm currently in the process of scanning for Universities to pursue a Post Graduate program in Marketing or related fields (Master or Msc). So I would really appreciate suggestions of good Schools/Universities offering such programs commencing by April or June 2012 preferably. I'm not looking at the likes of Richard Ivey School of Business, because frankly my grades are not quite there! So please do suggest schools keeping that in mind!! Thanks in advance and if you need to know where I stand before you can make a suggestion, read on :) v Further Information: I just scored a 660 on GMAT and my grade Percentage starting from High School has been at an average of 70% (68% in the last two years of study). I have a Bachelor Degree in Commerce, a PG Diploma in Risk Management (no full time work experience). Thanks again :)

• Answer:

  Hey there! I would strongly suggest that you consider looking into the John Molson School of Business within Concordia University in Montreal. It's an AACSB accredited school, an accreditation shared with Harvard and Wharton in the states. This is sort of like a gold seal of approval that guarantees excellence in teaching (relevant, dynamic, experience-driven) and in the types of issues covered. The programs at the JMSB can be competitive, but I can guarantee you that the experience within the programs is completely unique and will really get you places. You might want to take a class or two to up your average just to be on the safe side. It would be really to your advantage overall if you're applying to grad school to do so, no matter where you're thinking of applying. Take a look through the JMSB website to get a feel for the programs and see if you can find yourself fitting in: http://johnmolson.concordia.ca If you ever have questions don't hesitate to contact me, I help run a page for students interested in applying to Concordia: facebook.com/CUFutureStudents . I'm always happy to help!
