楼主，我想说MMPA虽然脱离了ROTMAN，也不在downtown， 但是faculty大多都是ROTMAN的教授阿，这点看他们官网上faculty链接就知道了，教学水平还是非常好的。想回国的话建议直接工作或者申请美国，工作完了再出去深造也很好。

你好 本人是Schulich Macc毕业的 我强烈推荐你去MF 而不是去Macc 我同学在MF 都说可以真正学到很多Finance方面的东西 也学的很深 不管你是回国做consulting还是留在这边都很有帮助 不建议你去MMPA 因为学的都是些本科的基本商科知识 浪费时间浪费钱  我不觉得schulich输在名声上了的

Consulting related courses at MMPA are taught by Prof. Kevin Yousie(a business consulting firm partner, Western Alumni), Prof. Varouj Aivazian (former chair for U of T Department of Economics) and Dr. Aida Wahid (Harvard Phd in Business Strategy). Consulting education here takes advantage of U of T’s strength in quantitative finance and financial economics.  That’s why Prof. Aivazian normally spends 6 classes on economic theories underlying those popular business strategy models, developing you a good habit of analyzing the fundamentals of the client’s company or the industry it played in first before you jumped to those theoretical strategy models made up by Harvard professors. As I mentioned that U of T has strength in quantitative finance and financial economics, the consulting education here absolutely has something relates to. Valuation is a key component that professor believes MMPA student shall be competent in. Not all students go to Bain or other consulting firms anyways. Some of them may join advisory team within the Big Four, providing transaction services in M&A for clients. Therefore, MMPA program prepares you both the capability of drawing big pictures for the client and the expertise to make these wishes happen. We have case competitions in the summer and you will have the opportunity to act on either side. Try to find out which side fits you well. (Sales person type or an expert )
For me, I’m just an accountant. I have nothing to do with the consulting business but I received this level of education as an average student. From my understanding, this is how MMPA works for student with career goal in consulting. I am sure that you will develop more thoughts, understanding and expertise better than me after completing these courses . I don’t know how student from Schulich, even from Macc program has that kind of blind confident that MMPA teaches nothing but general business knowledge. They only have one chance to take a master degree though. If you want to receive the best consulting education in Canada, just apply to Ivey Business School at Western. They are top tier for sure, in the education, in alumni network and in the job market.  For other schools, each of them has a strength. Key words for U of T are “Quantitative Finance” and “Financial Economics”.   But remember that only less than 20 MMPA students finally go to a career in consulting or finance after graduation. If you would like to be a majority, just look for another program.

干嘛不现在国内好好实习，争取转正，实习的同时再考国内的研究生啊，其实如果只是为了master degree的话，哪里念不都一样咧~
