Is a Queen’s MBA really worth $58,000 or a Rotman MBA $56,000? Why would you pay $56,000 for a one year Ivey MBA when you can get the same degree from HEC for $10,500, or $23,000 from DeGroote? Is a Schulich MBA worth $42,000? If so, why is an MBA from Alberta only $23,000 or McGill even less at $10,300? What is the value of a $12,000 MBA from Ryerson versus a $38,000 degree from Sauder? All of these are good schools offering very valid MBA programs. Some of them are internationally ranked and some are not, but that is not what sets the price for an MBA.

In part it has to do with location. In Canada universities are regulated by the provinces. Some years ago, the Ontario government deregulated tuitions for professional schools such as medicine, law and business. The argument was that since graduates of professional schools would earn a great deal more than graduates with an arts degree, they should pay proportionately more for their education. Tuitions were allowed to rise to meet market demand and since some of the bigger schools were competing internationally, they began to price their programs accordingly.
