Program details

Overview

The MBA at Niagara University in Ontario is a full-time graduate business program delivered by the Holzschuh Faculty of Business Administration at the university's Vaughan campus in the Greater Toronto Area. The program comprises 36 credit hours of advanced graduate business study: 24 credits of core business topics combined with 12 credits in one of five focused specializations - Digital Marketing, Analytics, and AI; Financial Analysis and Risk Management; Global Business and Supply Chain Management; Healthcare Administration; or Strategic Management. Students can complete the degree in 16 months over three semesters, with evening and Saturday classes designed around working professionals. Admission requires a baccalaureate degree with a minimum B average (3.0 on a 4.0 scale), and the program recognizes professional experience for applicants below that threshold. International applicants must submit official TOEFL or IELTS scores unless prior education was completed in English. Applications for the Fall intake, with classes beginning late August, are due in late July, and applications for the Winter intake, beginning mid-January, are due in early December.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 3.00 / 4.0
Admission Requirements: Applicants need a four-year baccalaureate degree with a minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, or a B average; those below the threshold are still encouraged to apply with significant professional experience or industry certification, and Niagara reserves the right to request GMAT scores in some cases. International applicants whose undergraduate instruction was not in English at a Canadian or US institution must submit English proficiency scores: IELTS Academic overall 6.5 (no band below 6.0), TOEFL iBT overall 100 (no section below 20) prior to 2026, or, under the university's stated 2026 revised scale, 5.5 (no section below 5.0), PTE Academic overall 60, Duolingo 125 or higher (no subscore below 125), or Oxford ELLT 7. No work experience is required, though relevant experience strengthens the application. The application needs two letters of reference, a personal statement of up to 250 words, a resume, official transcripts, and a credential evaluation for international degrees.
