Admission Requirements
Students seeking admission must be qualified to engage in graduate-level study. Successful applicants will have completed a four-year baccalaureate degree from a recognized university or college with a minimum average of 'B', based on the last 60 credit hours or two full years or equivalent of university study.
International students must meet country-specific requirements and English language proficiency requirements.
CMU requires official transcripts of all post-secondary studies.
All applicants who studied and obtained credentials at an institution outside Canada or the United States are required to submit their transcripts via a World Education Services (WES) Course-By-Course International Credential Advantage Package (ICAP) report. WES offers a variety of reports but CMU is only able to accept the course-by course ICAP report. This applies to both international applicants and domestic applicants who studied abroad.
Applicants should arrange to have the institutions at which they studied send official transcripts to CMU. Applicants who are required to have transcripts evaluated by WES should have their transcripts and report sent to CMU.
Transcripts can be mailed to:
Canadian Mennonite University Graduate Admissions
500 Shaftesbury Blvd.
Winnipeg, MB R3P 2N2
or emailed to gradstudies
Two references are required for the MBA. One academic and one non-academic (professional or character) reference is preferred.
Applicants are required to complete short essays as part of the application. Essay prompts are available in the application.
Applicants are required to upload a current copy of their resume as part of the application process.
Transfer Credit
Students may be eligible to transfer relevant graduate courses from other institutions. The number of credits that can be transferred is limited by CMU's degree and residency requirements.
