Business Schools: Students and Year Canada

business schools: Related American MBA students drawn to Canada's diversity Read more International students flooding some Canadian business schools with applications New data on potential applicants to global business schools, released recently by the U.S.-based Graduate Management Admission Council, show that between 2009 and 2016 Canada muscled its way onto a top-five list of international study destinations, according to Globe and Mail. The United States and Britain typically are preferred choices, but last year Canada moved into second place from fifth in 2009 as a destination for prospective MBA students from Africa. Kobusinge is one of a growing number of international students including a small but growing contingent from Africa who are pushing Canada up the charts as a preferred study destination. Over the same period, Canada climbed into third spot from fifth in 2009 for students from Central and South Asia, and stood fifth last year as a preferred location for prospective students from the United States and the Middle East. But researchers caution it is too early to assess the full impact of inward-looking practices reshaping overseas study choices. Some credit Canada's favourable profile to anti-immigrant policies in the United States and Britain that impose study and postgraduation restrictions on foreign students. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
