Admission Requirements
Applications for the June 2022 intake are now closed. Applications for next year’s intake (June 2023) will open in October 2022.
The Dalhousie Corporate Residency MBA program pools its applications, meaning that the applications are processed as they are received. However, students will only be notified about the status of their application following one of our three application deadlines (see below). If you are applying for our joint JD/MBA degree, be sure to take note of all related deadlines for each program. Please visit our Tuition & Financial Assistance page to see our Scholarship Application process. Applicants wishing to apply under the Promise Scholars program should contact us directly at crmba@dal.ca.
Canadian applicants
- Domestic students have three opportunities to submit their application: January 14 (first round), February 28 (second round), and April 22 (third round).
- Please note that our Douglas C. Mackay Entrance Scholarships are only available for students who have submitted a completed application and been interviewed prior to our first or second round of deadlines. Students who apply between February 28 and April 22 will not be eligible for entrance scholarships.
International applicants
International students must submit their application and all supporting documents by January 14 (first round). Students who apply before this date but whose transcripts arrive after January 14 may still be considered provided the document is dated prior to January 14.
NOTE: This ensures that students have enough time to apply for and receive BOTH their study permit AND Co-op Work Permit, copies of which must be provided to the MBA Office by March 31. Students who complete an online application after January 14 for the June 2022 Cohort will not be considered.
Most International students will also require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). For more information on all required immigration documents, please contact the International Centre. Advisors there are well equipped to support the application process for these necessary documents.
