After working as an office administrator and paralegal at a top-rated boutique law firm, I saw the importance of understanding business in running a successful firm, where business development, financial, and team management skills are all required. 鶹AV uniquely allows students to combine the MBA with both the BCL and JD law degrees. The business training and career development opportunities offered by the Desautels MBA program combined with 鶹AV’s transsystemic law program, comprising Common, Civil, and Indigenous traditions of law, offered the complete foundation I sought. I also recognized that my fellow students would shape my MBA experience. The structure and culture of the Desautels program, its international student body, its location in Montreal, the integrated International Study Trip, and its reputation as a leading business and law school made 鶹AV my top choice.

While preparing for my MBA journey there were certain key factors that were essential for my school selection. Starting with first and foremost were the variety of course offerings that would provide me with a strong theoretical and practical management foundation and become a future leader. Along with this there was flexibility to pace and tailor my course, according to my needs and interests.
Secondly, the small size of the cohort that would enable to get deeper bonds with my batch mates and foster a learning environment. This would also help me make connections for the lifetime.
Last but not the least was the impact that my interview experience with you had on me. My experience through my interview with you was one of a kind and it made me realize the emphasis 鶹AV puts on knowing the actual me, and not only the superficial self of knowing the scores, which is the eliminating criteria for most of the colleges.
A combination of all these major and some of the minor factors made me choose 鶹AV over other colleges and I am glad that I am part of the "DARE" legacy and will be called a product of 鶹AV.
