Ivey Business School Technicality?
In the University of Western Ontario, Ivey School of Business it's a 2+2 program. So in the first two years we do whatever we want then in the 3rd and 4th year we are in Ivey and do business.
That being said, in high school you can apply for AEO status and if you get accepted than during those 2 years of doing whatever you want as long as you maintain 80% you're guaranteed into Ivey.
My question is, if I put "Richard Ivey School of Business - Candidate for Bachelor of Arts in Honors Business Administration" on my resume during my first 2 years at Western, would that be considered a lie? Or should I put Western Ontario then just say I have AEO status for Ivey?
Personally, I consider saying I'm a candidate and AEO status the same thing, but correct me if i'm doing something extremely wrong.
No just say you're in Western Ivey AEO, everybody understands this and nobody's gonna think ur in Ivey as a first or secound year
Don't say you're in Ivey. The people who know what it is, will know you're lying and you may get dinged. The people who don't know what it is, won't care.
Say you go to Western and state your current program. You can put down that you're an AEO in a bullet under Western.
^ I highhhly doubt you'd get dinged over that. If someone put down, Ivey HBA expected 2016, it'd take an idiot to not connect the dots, and if they did, I'm sure they'd understand what you mean. Put AEO but any bank/guy willing to ding you over putting "ivey" when you're really "AEO" isn't someone you want to work for cas they're probably retarded
You will look like a douchbag putting HBA canadidate when you are just an AEO, and that will likely to get you dinged.
I've seen it been done before...AEO didn't exist a few years ago, and talking to friends who are alumni of the program, they're always annoyed by 1st/2nd years saying they're in Ivey.
As an AEO, you're not there yet. So it is much better to say you're at Western, but state that you have AEO status. This way you don't run the risk of alumni calling you out on not being in Ivey, yet you still show that you're a relatively smart kid and chances are you will be in Ivey eventually.
seems like we got a lot of ex-HBA's here. got a quick somewhat related question coming from an incoming HBA2. when stating your GPA on the resume, do you just state it overall (first 3 years) or just your HBA1 marks. do companies even look at year's 1 and 2?
Some will specifically ask for year 1 and 2 marks. As for your resume, I would put whatever is highest and can be justified haha
true. even if they ask for years 1 & 2, is the focus still on HBA1? i ask only because i did very well in HBA1, where has years 1 & 2 were average for me.
Would putting this on my resume suffice:
The University of Western Ontario
Honors Bachelor of Arts in [Program] with AEO Status for
Ivey School of Business
Western University Candidate for Bachelor of Arts, [Program] Advanced Entry Opportunity, Ivey Business School
italicize lines 2 and 3
You're a saint. Thanks for the help.
Just list HBA1 average.
